FAQS

Q: Do you buy consignment? Would you buy the things I made and / or vintage and antique beads & jewelry

We truly love that you're making things, but unfortunately we do not buy things consignment or purchase outside work.

We have a reliable network of suppliers and are not currently in the position to purchase your collections. But we're thrilled that you thought of us.

Q: Can you make me / my business a custom designed / sized beaded curtain?

Unfortunately no, we cannot create custom designs or sizes for our customers. However, you may be able to shorten them / decrease the width of the designs we offer slightly by manipulating the wires that connect the beads together.

Q: Do you offer private classes?

A: It depends on a variety of factors. Get in touch with us to let us know what you're interested in learning, and we'll let you know if it's a possibility.

Q: Do you sell at wholesale prices and how would I sign up for that?

A: We do indeed sell at wholesale prices to those who meet our requirements. We have a general policy and a Wholesale Plus+ program for larger companies than would truly like to purchase in bulk. To learn about our wholesale policies, please see here.

Q: I am a stylist looking to pull items for a shoot. How do I best do that?

A: Beads of Paradise does not, at anytime, give loans (pulls), secured or unsecured. We do however do rentals for stylists. Please see here for more info.

Q: If you don't have something I'm looking for, is it possible for you to order it? Do you take requests?

A: We love working with you when possible. Please send us a picture and or a description of what you're interested in and we'll be in touch.

Q: Can you repair / restring my jewelry / create my custom piece while I wait?

It is our policy that NO Labor is done “on the spot”/”while you wait”. Any exceptions to this are at the discretion of the management and only at the discretion of the management. All items at Beads of Paradise are sold “As Is” with no warranty implied or expressed. If you have a problem with one of your purchases, please ask to see a manager. Thank you for your understanding.

Q: I LOVE a piece of jewelry but would prefer the clasp in a different color, or the length adjusted. Can you do that?

For most pieces of jewelry on our site, we should be able to accommodate a request such as this, with some exceptions. You can purchase and leave a note when you purchase, or get in touch with us to inquire (please include a link to the product in question).

Repairs & Custom Jewelry

Beads of Paradise NYC

Beads Of Paradise began in the late 1980’s as a small store in the East Village. We originally specialized in African antiquities, textiles, beads and jewelry – but as interest in world art and beads grew throughout the 1990s, we underwent a major expansion and moved to our current location in the historic Flatiron district of New York City.
