I've been collecting (and playing with) rare and artisan beads for 20 years and fairly recently decided to explore the possibility to sell some of my creations. I'm now in the phase where I need to select the pieces I'll offer for sale and don't know what to do... One of my favourite things to make are extra long necklaces with lampwork, vintage and gemstone beads, but I have no idea if anybody would buy them. They can't be cheap - each one is OOAK collection of artisan glass beads (e.g. the geisha bead alone in the first picture was about $50 four years ago), gemstones and rare vintage beads. Is it wiser to break them into bracelets and short necklaces, or do you think there are people who would buy them? And another question - would you call this costume jewellery? Thank you for taking your time to help me decide!

I want to start my own jewellery business and struggle to find a shop that can produce boxes like the picture (with 2 colours logo, that blue dot is very important to me) and makes possible to order only 50 boxes (for start, if everything is OK and once my business takes off I'll certainly order more).

Threading stories of artisans, times, places...

“Good Earth” is the result of 20 years collecting beads from around the world and my fascination with the very elements that shape our beautiful Earth, the civilizations that came before us, and the craftsmanship of artists and artisans throughout history. It’s a celebration of the connections that create the story of our planet.

Each piece is a one-of-a-kind curated composition; many feature individual beads that are themselves unique artifacts.

I have divided the collection into four lines:

1.“Roots” (Primitive Chic) - tribal, prehistoric aesthetic born from my admiration for Earth as an element and the tactile pleasure of working with grounding raw clay elements. It features handmade creations from contemporary ceramic artists from around the world, combined with genuine ancient and/or traditional beads, stones, metals and linen threads.

2. “Traveller” (Ethnic Boho) – a tribute to various civilizations and the craftsmanship of artisans throughout history. It features handmade beads from around the world and creations of Venetian glass artists from late 19th and early 20^(th) century, combined with gemstones, vintage and contemporary beads and metal elements.

3. “Mesmerized” (Funky Boho) – an expression of my fascination with contemporary glass artistry, gemstones and crystals. It’s a line that celebrates color, light, sparkle, and form.

4. “Neo Retro” (Colourful Modern Minimalism) – my playful take on the 80s and 90s aesthetics that I grew up with. This line is a diverse mix of modern and vintage materials, bridging nostalgia and modern form. It focuses on vibrant colours, colour blocking and geometric shapes.

I'm not ready to sell yet, but getting really close :). Hope you like what you see!

Made these bracelets a while ago with yellow gold components, but I wasn't sure it was the best fit. I asked AI to recreate them with different metals, but still not sure which one looks best. I would very much appreciate your help - 1,2,3 or 4?
