They shine, they sparkle, they gleam, they glitter. While some are hand-painted in delicate hues, some have the colors of nature’s palette on them, and some look as if they have been made from the rainbow itself. Glass beads of all colors, shapes, and sizes can be turned into beautifully crafted jewelry like necklaces, earrings, bracelets, long strings that can be worn around the neck, and so on.

Beaded jewelry has adorned the human body throughout history in practically every part of the world. In the early ages animal bones were threaded with plant vines and worn as amulets as protection against evil. And once humans developed tools that could be used to create holes into various things, practically everything could be fashioned into a bead.

Tribal people, since ancient times, have always used the pods of plants and seeds as beads. Later, they learnt to make beads from clay, painting them with bright colors. And much later, when glass made its appearance, sometime around 3000 BC, it transformed the concept of beaded jewelry forever. In fact, glass became so popular that the Egyptians as well as the Mesopotamians, and subsequently the Israelites, the Romans, and the Indians from the sub-continent created glass beads, using their own cultural norms on the art.

Although it is the Egyptians who are usually credited for being the first to create glass beads, however, it is still uncertain who were the actual originators of this beautiful art. Nevertheless, the Egyptians not only created glass beads but also turned them into beautiful pieces of glass bead jewelry. Today, this ancient legacy of glass-beaded treasures, which have come down to us, are some of the most exquisite and admired in existence.

A renaissance of beading took place a few centuries after the Vikings when the couturiers of Europe, in the latter part of the 1800s, realized that they could not only draw attention to themselves but also earn a substantial amount of money by embellishing the accessories and gowns of the aristocrats with beads. Elaborate designs, which at times took several months to be created, were stitched on to all sorts of things like ball slippers and dresses.

Today, glass bead jewelry is as popular in the fashion scene as it has always been throughout the centuries. Fashion ramps are filled with women wearing necklaces embellished with small glass beads and colorful pendants. There are also earrings and necklaces that have eye-catching large sized and lightweight glass beads. Tiny black glass beads strung on delicate silver chains as well as bulky and colorful beads embedded on heavier chains are the latest trends in jewelry. Then there are strands of glass beads of various colors, sizes and shapes that can be strung around the neck, either as a single long strand or twisted or braided for an elegant look. Vintage glass beads are being juxtaposed with wooden beads to create a dramatic effect. From white pearl glass bead necklaces and black glass bead chokers to black glass bead hoop earrings to green glass bead brooches and bracelets, glass beads are being used to create a colorful and distinctive look today.
