If you are as obsessed as we are with the fantastic, decadently looonnnnnnng Freshwater Pearl Necklace that Sarah Jessica Parker wore to the Met Gala this past Monday then we sure have a treat for you! We absolutely LOVE the very Beads of Paradise story about her colleague stringing them up for her, and of course we have a bounty of Pearls still at the shop so that you can snap them up and do the same for yourself.
The treat is that our talented staff strung up a few extra long Freshwater Pearl replicas if you want to rock them right out of the shop or package!
We're SO excited to pictorially show off all of the African Tribes from which we have collected. You may notice that some tribes don't appear to have any items, but please note that not all items that we have are currently on the website. They are tucked away safely, and available to be seen upon request. Looking for more information? Please use the contact form at the bottom of the page!
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.
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.

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.
