Orca Beads | Hand Painted Beads | Jewelry | Peruvian Ceramic | Jewelry Making Supplies | Handmade in Peru
Black above and white below, the orca wears one of the boldest color schemes in the ocean — and that crisp two-tone pattern is exactly what makes it such a striking jewelry motif. Whale watchers, divers, and Pacific Northwest devotees tend to claim the killer whale as their animal; it stands for intelligence, family bonds, and sheer oceanic power.

The bead reproduces the contrast faithfully: glossy black back and dorsal fin set against a pale belly and the characteristic white eye patch, all sealed under a hard glaze. At a half inch square, the silhouette stays readable from across the room. It's a forgiving bead for beginners, too, since the simple two-color scheme hides the small asymmetries that busier patterns expose.
The 1.5-2mm hole accepts beading wire and most cords. String it into sea-life bracelets with dolphin and wave companions, hang one from an ear wire for instant marine earrings, or anchor a coastal necklace with a pod of three.
For anyone who has watched a dorsal fin break the surface, this little whale is a memory made wearable.
