Beluga Whale Beads Peruvian Ceramic | Peruvian Ceramic Beads | Hand Painted | Handmade in Peru
Sailors nicknamed the beluga the canary of the sea, after the chirps, squeals, and whistles that carry through Arctic water. Add the round melon forehead and that permanent-looking smile, and you have the most instantly likable whale in the ocean — and one of the most requested subjects in sea-life jewelry.

The bead measures 1 inch by 0.5 inches and keeps the beluga's defining features: pale creamy body, smooth rounded head, the gently upturned line of the mouth. Against the darker glazes typical of ceramic animal beads, its white finish stands out clearly on the strand — handy when you want one bead to carry the focal point without adding size.
That friendly face makes it a favorite for children's necklaces, but it also anchors more grown-up Arctic palettes — icy aqua, slate gray, silver findings. The 2.5mm hole threads easily with cord, ribbon, or wire, so it adapts to whichever direction your design takes.
Four belugas per set: a small pod, ready to be split between earrings, a bracelet, and whatever the leftover pair ends up inspiring. If you already work with the larger whale styles, the beluga rounds out the family nicely.
