Bead à la Carte

Love your bead necklace or bracelet? Add another bead to the story! This listing is for a single deeply engraved bead. Just the bead. No chain included. Here’s how it works. Our beads have a small opening, about 1.6 mm across. The clasps on most chains are too big to fit through it. So every bead piece is assembled in the studio — we string the beads on first, then solder the clasp closed. That’s what makes them sit so securely. What that means for you: Building a new piece? Order your necklace or bracelet, then add as many beads as you like. We assemble it all together before it ships. Adding a bead to a piece you already own? We would love to help. Message us before you order so we can walk you through sending it in for re-stringing. Need the chain too? Shop our Bead Necklaces or Bead Bracelets instead. Those arrive complete and ready to wear. The engraved bead measures 8 mm in diameter. Each piece is handcrafted with love and engraved to order in our North Carolina studio.
