Here are my favorite online retailers to find unique jewelry supplies.
Silver Enchantments
Silver Enchantments has the largest collection of charms and pendants, most of them so unique you won't find them anywhere else. With collections like fantasy, celestial, Celtic, and Egyptian there is always something new to try in your jewelry making. Silver Enchantments also has the best selection of decorative headpins I have been able to find from any supplier.
Bally Bead Company
Bally Bead Company is known best for its large selection of Bali style silver beads and components as well as marcasite findings. The collection that is more impressive though, is the endless variety of African trade beads. There are so many choices and different styles of beads, and the collection is always growing.
Guyot Brothers
If you are looking for quality brass stampings and filigree stop by Guyot Brothers first. Traditional, deco, and modern styles are all available in the collection, but the traditional floral pieces are really the best I have seen anywhere. Just about every other supplier of filigree pieces orders from Guyot Brothers and the rest try to find imitation pieces.
Gems 2 Behold
Gems 2 Behold specializes in Venetian glass beads made from Murano glass. With 4,000 beads in every shape and color possible you will find what you are looking for. If not, wait a couple of weeks because new choices are always being added. For the best of the Murano beads go through the glass beads with gold foil and the bicolor choices that appear to as glass suspended within glass.
Fire Mountain Gems
I like to think of Fire Mountain Gems as a jewelry supply mall, every corner of the jewelry making market is covered. Every type of bead, finding, tool, or wire is available and new ones are added all the time. I check the site constantly because sales and offers are posted on the site regularly. If you are looking for a little inspiration or instruction on a new technique check out the How-to section full of free beading patterns and projects.
Jewelry Findings
Jewelry Findings carries a huge selection of jewelry making components but the collection that makes it stand out are the cameos. From traditional cameos to whinsical and modern, jewelry findings has them all. Pink, blue, ivory and so many more colored cameos come with animals peoples and scenes. Every one is ready to be added to a necklace, bracelet or earrings.
