I got back from China last week, after a very successful buying trip! I sourced some beautiful gemstone beads, in some of the stones you have all been telling me you’re looking for. Stones like rock crystal, black onyx, amethyst, coral, fancy agate. Lots of big chunky styles and also faceted. And also some new stones we haven’t stocked before! They are still in transit, on a ship in the middle of the ocean somewhere – but I expect they’ll be here in around a months time.
In addition to all the wonderful gemstone goodies, I got my hands on some gorgeous freshwater pearls. Although I did learn from the pearl manufacturers that pearl prices are on their way up . I secured this shipment of pearls at the lower price – so stock up now before the price rises!
I’ll post some more info about some of the other great beads I found in China in the coming days. Along with some photos (if there are any decent ones, haha!).
