Permelia's Beads

Permelia's Beads Vintage inspired injection-molded and laser cut resin beads and beaded jewelry designed and collecte

During a buying trip to southern Germany Ava Motherwell found a small factory that had been making beads for 120 years and 4 generations. Originally, the family made glass beads, and then in the 1960's, they switched to manufacturing exclusively plastic and resin beads to keep up with the fashions of that time. Plastics became very popular with designers because of color, size, weight and price. O

ne of the reasons Ava fell in love with these beautiful beads is that they look and feel like Vintage Lucite and Bakelite. The resin is still hand-mixed in small batches to keep the unique feel and high-quality that is important to the manufacturer and to Ava. The beads are molded using many of the same tools that have been used since the 1960's.
