Bead charms and beaded jewelry provide an ideal alternative to traditional jewelry.

Since the dawn of time, beaded jewelry has graced the people of cultures worldwide. It has played an important part in social history, whether being for social status and standing within a community, or just for trading purposes.

It is said that a Dutch immigrant traded beads with native landowners for the island known as Manhattan. It is also said that jewelry designer Jacques Cartier traded two pearl necklaces for the land for his first United States store in the early 1900s.

Early beaded jewelry was primitive and made of primitive materials such as shells, seeds, and stones. Nowadays, popular materials are glass, plastic, wood and crystal.

Modern Bead Charms and Jewelry

Bead charms are great for jewelry wearers of all ages who are looking for pieces that are original and express their individuality. They allow for the wearer to express their individuality through the bright colors of the beads and also the personalized theme of the charms.

There are two different types of bead charm bracelets - they either consist of a beaded bracelet with a set of silver themed charms on it, or a bracelet which features charms that are made out of beads themselves.

With the first type, a mixture of traditional materials such as gold or silver integrated with the beads can make for a more mainstream look to an item. Whereas, the second type where the charms are made from beads, are ideal for younger girls, as they are inexpensive and fun.

Bead charm bracelets can start from a couple of dollars, and depending on the materials used to make it (whether it be plastic bead charms on a piece of elastic through to Swarovski crystal beads on a gold bracelet and anything in between).
