We have also brought in new colours of dancing coin pearls which are great for illusion style floating necklaces.

A full complement of 10mm Chinese Glass Pearls has just been unpacked and uploaded to the website, and we're really pleased with the great selection of 25 colours.

These glass pearl beads have a lovely lustre, shine and coating and are going to be great this autumn when strung up as medium length pearl necklaces with complementary 6/0 or 8/0 Miyuki seed beads used as spacer beads in between.

Priced at £2.65 for a 15.5 inch strand.
