Mermaid Beads Hand Painted Peruvian Ceramic Beads | Jewelry Making Supplies | Handmade in Peru
Mermaid people declare themselves early — usually around age six — and rarely grow out of it. This bead is for them at any age: a golden-haired mermaid with a sweeping tail, rendered in bright glaze on a bead 1 inch wide and 0.625 inch tall.

The yellow hair is what sets this design apart from the usual sea-green mermaid fare; it frames the face and plays against the blues of the tail, so the figure stays legible even at earring size. It is also a discontinued design, available only while remaining stock lasts, which makes it a quiet find for collectors of figural ceramics.
Hang one from a chain for a beach-bound teenager, work a pair into shell-and-pearl earrings, or anchor a fantasy-themed bracelet with all four from the set. The 2-3mm hole accepts standard cords and wires.
For the year-round swimmer, the fairy-tale reader, or anyone who lingers at the ocean's edge long after everyone else has packed up, a mermaid is less a motif than a self-portrait.
