Handmade Beaded Jewellery - Now & Then!

The history of beaded jewellery began more than 70,000 years ago when man first found the beads and gemstones and thought it was incredibly beautiful. The legends tell us that the man attached the gemstones or beads to leather straps and wore them around their neck to create the first handcrafted beaded jewellery. Over time, the handcrafted beaded jewellery started to become a status symbol. Those with power and wealth were the ones who had beaded jewellery. 

Handcrafted beaded jewellery has been made out of many types of beads like glass, bone, porcelain, shells, paper, clay, metals, gemstones, ivory and even wood. Mass production of beads didn’t even begin until the 1800s when glass beading became widely available. It was at this time that Swarovski created their process for making their special beads which are still in high demand today.

Different parts of the world created different types of handcrafted beaded jewelry. Central and South America are known for their wampum and quill creations, while Native American beadwork usually included a lot of turquoise and silver. Bead making in France began as early as 38,000 BC! Worry beads, Filigree, and highly decorated ceramic beads originated in Greece, while Italy specialized in the Murano glass beads. There are dozens of other countries not yet discussed here, but beaded jewelry has a rich and vast history that is incredibly interesting. Suffice it to say that there is a rich cultural tradition with wearing beaded jewellery.
