Types of Beads

Beads can be found in a myriad of shapes and materials. Glass beads varieties are numerous since whatever can be done to form glass can be used to make beads. I love the multifacted beauty of leaded glass crystal. Their light reflecting iridesence and generally uniform shape lend themselves to unclutterd, classy designs.

The multifacated shimmer of leaded crystal beads is beautiful to behold. The surprising varieties of artisan beads is phenominal, limited only by the artists' imagination, skills and materials used.

There are wood beads, bone beads, pearls, metal, semiprecious stones, and, well you get the idea.

Beads can be found in numerous shapes and sizes from the 1 1/2" standard seed beads to beads to as large as 2". Their shapes are limitless from round to square to oblong and more. A visit to the bead shop will totally engage your creative spirit.
