About: Pandora Style Beads
Pandora style beads are stunning blown-glass, silver, and gold beads popularized by the Pandora jewelry company. The beads are mixed and matched to create original, exquisite bracelets, necklaces, and earrings. Original Pandora beads come at a steep price- many start at $40.00 for a single bead! The Pandora style has become so popular that it has taken the jewelry-making world by storm. Wholesalers and private artisans now create “Pandora style beads” that can be purchased at a fraction of the cost as the original Pandora beads.
Pandora-style beads come in a variety of designs and materials. The beads are intended to be mixed and matched with other beads so that a person can create a customized look. Some pieces of jewelry contain only a few beads while others are a collection of many beads strung together to create a stunning, original design. The versatility and creative style of Pandora style beads is the reason they have become a mainstream trend.
Metal beads are the basis for most Pandora style pieces of jewelry. The metal beads are engraved with different patterns, formed to represent symbols or animals, or are twisted and fashioned into unique, contemporary designs. There is no limit to what metal beads can represent! The beads are most commonly shaped in circles, ovals, barrels, squares, spools, or fashioned to look like flowers, hearts, or other images. Some metal beads are silver plated, contains small stones, or are an amalgamation of black and silver-colored metals. Metal beads also come as letter blocks so that words or initials can be incorporated into a design.
Pure gold beads are extremely expensive. Pandora style beads emulate the look of pure gold by plating a silver or metal core with gold. Pandora-style jewelry encourages the mix of different color-tones of metals. Gold beads are often placed right next to silver beads.
Enamel and glass-blown beads add color to Pandora style beaded jewelry. Gold or silver plated or metal beads are adorned with colorful enamel. Glass-blown beads are a surprisingly interesting but beautiful way to add substance and color to a beaded bracelet or necklace.
Pandora style beads are strung together, often using spacer beads to separate glass, enamel, metal, or gold-plated beads. Spacer beads are small and add depth to a design. When designing a unique piece of jewelry, a person can coordinate different beads, even charms, and this is the real allure of Pandora style jewelry. Teenagers and adults alike are captivated by the inventive nature of combining individual, gorgeous beads to create a stunning design.
