Beautiful Semi-Precious & Special Beads in Pairs & 10s
We know how frustrating it is to have to buy an entire string of beads when all you want to make is a pair of earrings or dangles for a bracelet so we've introduced "Earring Pairs" , beautiful pairs of semi precious stones, Swarovski crystals, Freshwater Pearls and beads for you to make into beautiful jewellery. We will be adding to this range over the next few weeks so please visit again soon.

The semi precious stones and pearls are natural and therefore will not match exactly, but we will put together stones that we believe go together. Some pairs are shown with a copper wire to demonstrate hole orientation. More pairs coming soon !
