Cinnabar Beads - Vintage Black Cinnabar Beads - Vintage Large Cinnabar Beads - Vintage

carved cinnabar beads



These are great vintage cinnabar beads that were deeply carved by hand in a floral pattern. They were made long ago with a process that involved slowly adding many layers of cinnabar lacquer over a wood base. The cinnabar mineral was found to be toxic, so true cinnabar beads can no longer be made. We just love the look of these beads mixed with our cloisonne beads.

Size: 15mm

Black cinnabar beads

Dramatic looking vintage cinnabar beads that were deeply carved by hand in a floral pattern. These beads were made with black lacquer on top and red lacquer inside. The red peaks through on the deepest cuts. We just love the look of these beads mixed with our cloisonne beads.

Simulated Turquoise & Coral - Vintage

Trio of Resin Hearts - Vintage

Vintage Carved Resin - Vintage

TQ & coral bead

These vintage beads are from the 1940's, and the old boxes were marked simulated turquoise and coral. We are not certain of their composition; but think they were formed from crushed turquoise and coral pieces with a compound or epoxy added to harden the mixture. They have excellent wear ability since they are waterproof and very durable. The ridge circling them is highly polished and very pretty.

Sizes: 12mm


resin hearts

We got these puffy resin hearts from an old bead store in New York. We love their bright colors and shiny finish.  Each pack comes with a red, navy and violet heart. Drilled across at the widest part of the bead.

Sizes: 37 x 30mm
