Faerybeads baby dragon

Oh she's wonderful! What a great addition.

I certainly want one, such a cute little bead
question, can it be ordered at the same time as the dragon lock?

Thats a lovely bead..

Isn't she a designer for Bower beads? I love the dragon!

Now where are my glasses - I will like to take a closer look at this one and from more angles

A very cute little dragon.

Wowwwww! It is so detailed!!!!! I love it! Can we all get it?

I am sincerely deeply grateful that Ruth is going to design for Faerybeads. Not even in my wildest dreams it came up with me she would be doing these designs. We've been in contact for nearly a year but it had nothing to do with designing. When Fera's dragon lock design was promoted to be designed I carefully checked with Ruth if she was interested, but it got overlooked and we never discussed it again. Until recent when I send the play-doh dragon and the promotion pictures of the green jewel eyed dragon lock. The rest is history.

BTW, how about "Norbert" for a name? Though it is less fearsome than Hagrid's tiny Norwegian Ridgeback.

Norbert will be available through this forum, my jeweler/producer's shop in Utrecht, I'll be working on a webshop and of course Ruth will also sell the beads directly from Australia.

And I've got a question for you!
Should Faerybeads be designed with a small core similar to Trollbeads or a large core?

Norbert has a large core similar to Bowerbeads (Ruth's wildlife series) and the next design as well. But the ones we are planning/designing how would you like it?

We will also release at least one dragon chain. Fit for small core beads. Another dragon scales chain is currently produced by a Fair Trade organization in Cambodia that I worked with 15 years ago. But until I've got a new sample I can't offer that one yet.

Exciting news! I am looking forward to all of the dragons.

I vote for small cored beads - they work better on leather.

A large core would offer other collectors than TB fans the possibility to wear Faerybeads too and that's the market TB is aiming for right now too. But many people here on BT are originally TB collectors and not interested in larger cored beads. I personally don't mind with silver beads as I have many beads I love from other brands that have bigger cores (like RBF and Ohm) but if I'm asked in advance and could choose I'd prefer small cored beads!

Good point, Lisa!

I would suggest small cores .
