Alligator Beads | Hand Painted Peruvian Ceramic | Reptile Animal Jewelry Supplies
Some designers build an entire piece around one unforgettable bead, and this alligator is exactly that bead. Hand-shaped and hand-glazed in Peru, each one carries the animal's armored hide and long, toothy jaw in bright kiln-fired color.

At 1.5 inches long and 0.625 inch wide, it is a genuinely substantial component — a set of four weighs about 16.9 grams of solid ceramic. The 2–3mm channel runs the full length of the body and takes leather cord, heavy thread, and most common stringing wire. That scale makes the gator a natural centerpiece: one at the middle of a necklace, or a single dramatic drop per earring that swings with real presence.
These suit swamp-and-bayou themes, Florida souvenirs, zookeeper gifts, reptile-lover jewelry, and kids' designs that want a touch of friendly menace. Because each bead passes through an individual artisan's brush, expect small differences from one to the next — the signature of handwork, never a defect.
Each set of four covers matched earrings with two focal beads to spare.
