Re: Trollbeads will release limited edition Chinese Zodiac beads

I seem to be liking the ox, tiger and dragon best. Some of the others have such 'dead' eyes! I didn't know but I was also born in the/a year of the dragon. Wow, that will make FB's (Faerybead's) dragon lock even more special! ♥

Thanks once again Sherlock!

I'm thinking this will be part of the Hong Kong World Tour ...

For those wanting to know a bit more about the chinese zodiac I've added a few links at the first post: http://www.beadthrilled.com/t6055-trollbeads-will-release-limited-edition-chinese-zodiac-beads#108270

Looking at my 'year animal' and 'month's inner animal' the description is very close.

They look a lot like the earlier limited chinese silvers, which I sold, haha. But maybe a bead with a sign is better, more personal for me.. Thank you sherlock!

Wow, these should be very nice beads. Thanks, Sherlock! Thanks, Admin!

Hurray!! You're a dragon too.

These beads could be fun to make family bracelets with. Thanks for the peek!

OOO, why again in a set and limited. I like them all, only not my purse.
Thank you sherlock and Sitta.

Ooh thank you for posting this!!! Coming from an Taiwanese heritage, the Chinese zodiac is very important to me Very Happy

I am a year of the dragon...guess I'll need that one!! And one for every other member in my family...rooster, monkey, and dog too haha.

I wonder how the dragon in the zodiac set looks compared to the one from the LE China set. She looks a bit more fierce in this set (which I like, I let go of the one from the China set in lieu of the phoenix/dragon).

Am I the only pig? LOL....

I think I will need them all since they are more meaningful to me than the Chinese silvers.
I wonder if I can swing one bead a month? Twisted Evil

OMG I can't afford any more fab beads. They do look good though! Shocked

That is great news

I'm a rabbit albino

At least this part is true:

Rabbits like to surround themselves with beautiful things.

But I agree Naranja about the "dead eyes", need to see the IRL first.

Thanks Sherlock and thanks Site for the sneek peek .... again!

by Wintertroll Tue Dec 06, 2011 5:45 pm

Wow, can't wait to see them IRL. Thanks for the sneak peak!!

yep that's the one. it starts with mouse on the top left, then following the circle in the first picture, goes from left to right/top to bottom. Very Happy

by Fuzzyfeet Tue Dec 06, 2011 6:02 pm

These are lovely and I would like to get them all.....................but I'm going to have to rob a bank Rolling Eyes

by rainyday Tue Dec 06, 2011 6:11 pm

These are really neat. I wonder if the same group of designers that did the China Ltd set did these? I'll probably only go for my own, as it is Snake, which is cool. Wink

by lyric_girl Tue Dec 06, 2011 6:11 pm

LOVE them. Must have a tiger and an ox to represent me and DH.

by Molamola Tue Dec 06, 2011 6:12 pm

Oh no, those gits! Of course I think they are lovely, hopefully I will be able to collect them slowly. Nearly all my Xmas bead money has been spent on clothes this year!
