Bone and Horn Beads, Clay Flutes

For my customers and friends, I have been looking for new looks to add into my line of jewelry. Been busy trying to get a more ethnic look going along with my traditional gemstone beaded jewelry and sterling silver wrapped gemstones.

I am trying to stay away from the usual easy to find bone and horn beads. Not only do they attract me, I also, don't believe they would be attractive to my usual customers. So, I have taken to the internet and started reaching out directly to other countries to find artist specializing in this type of craft. It's been slow going but I think I have found some really cool pieces to add to my jewelry designs.

Also, during my search I found some of my childhood favorites, clay flutes to include in necklace designs. Beautiful, functional and entertaining to those who love to make music at whim. First few pieces will be purchased flutes but after that I am going to start designing my own from scratch like I did as a younger person. Gotta go to work, to many projects jumping about in my head, can't wait to get started.
