Beautiful Light-Weight Metal Beads

Anita's new line of light-weight "metalized plastic" beads are an exciting way to add silver or gold to your designs without adding weight. The series includes Green Gold and Blue Silver beads which are comfortable to wear and large enough to make a statement. They are also a very affordable alternative to sterling or gold-filled beads, and are more durable than silver or gold plated beads.

Selected designs are also available in the more traditional antiqued silver and antiqued gold. Antiqued copper will also be added soon to the MP Collection at Anita's Beads.

New Metal Beads and Bead Caps

Check out our new shipment of metal beads and bead caps. I especially like the stars and the spirals! All are available in your choice of antique silver, gold, or antique copper in 8-inch strands. Another favorite is the new large oval cone end which are available in pack of two. Below is a sample with the antique silver finish.
