About Us
Brand Story:
Growing up in the eastern Himalayas, Beth fell in love with countless alpine plants and gorgeous flowers at a young age. Her passion for the outdoors led her into the path of creating handmade jewelry that honors nature. In 1998, her brand “beads u workshop” was launched. The workshop’s original name, pronounced like the French word for jewel, “bijoux,” is derived from Beth’s given name “Bi”, meaning the “color of jade.”
Beth’s designs are inspired by her travels around the world. In these journeys, she encountered a myriad of techniques and materials from different peoples, places and periods. Through her diverse engagement with the art, culture, and history, her jewelry incorporates a variety of techniques, such as bead embroidery, soutache, micromacrame, crochet, tatting, and wire wrapping.
Imbued with vibrant colors and a delicate intricacy, Beth’s products have drawn attention from famous designers around the jewelry world. Now beads u workshop offers over 100,000 different styles and attracts buyers from all over the globe.
