Astrachan Artistry:
B-e-a-d friended

Beautifully crafted bracelets and earrings for all ages and tastes

As a true “beadaholic,” I currently have over 450 bracelet styles, designed with glass beads, cloisonné, gemstones and crystal.  Amber to zebra jasper, my Beadfriended line features a rainbow of options in casual, classic or dressy interpretations.  Many bracelets are offered with coordinating earrings at a reduced price, conveniently gift-boxed. 

I construct my bracelets using stainless steel wire in order to create “hassle-free” jewelry:  no clasps and one-size-fits-most.  Even customers without flexibility issues appreciate not having to struggle to put their bracelets on, and the universal size works great for gift-shopping! 

I am especially addicted to the vivid palette of Swarovski crystal.  My earrings feature crystal and sterling silver in over 125 color combinations.  I’ve also enjoyed creating over 50 different Swarovski bracelet/earring designs for those who love the sparkle as I do.

For several years I have been making custom birthstone crystal and sterling silver bracelets.  These popular one-of-a-kind designs allow customers to honor special relatives, friends or occasions in a memorable, wearable way.  Recipients tell me that their family bracelets make them feel very connected to loved ones.

Several years ago I introduced a new line of colorful children’s bracelets, made with lead-free beads and suitable for smaller wrists.  They are a best seller.

My earrings are very affordable at $12-$18; my glass and gemstone bracelets are moderately priced in the $12 to $64 range.  The Swarovski sets, at around $44, make a unique statement for anyone who has been "Beadfriended.”
