The 2025 People’s Bead: Mountain Edelweiss – designed by Alexandra Chapman of Germany. Inspired by the rugged beauty of the Alps, this sterling silver bead cradles a faceted labradorite at its heart, surrounded by delicate edelweiss petals. It celebrates resilience and the hidden treasures of nature, where flowers and crystals quietly thrive even against all odds.
This bead is suitable for bracelets, bangles, and necklaces.
Crafted with precision from high-quality 925 Sterling Silver, we use a 3,000-year-old technique called ‘cire perdu’ or ‘lost wax’ which allows for finer details to be displayed. Each bead then goes through an oxidization process to create contrast effects and to give them character. Finally, each bead is hand-polished.
