Felt Bead Ring -- Haparanda by Madame Bijoux
A beautiful example of felt beads in jewelry

Pictured here is one of my favorites! It's the Haparanda from Madame Bijoux, an Australian indie designer. This super unique & stunning ring is created from pure wool and pearl seed beads. When the wool is wet it is shaped into a durable & washable design. The ring is hand crafted & hand sewn for superb details. Madame Bijoux also has a store on Etsy.

Felt Beaded Rings -- Sculptural and Fabulous

Wow! These are so cool. They're from Chris Rom and Geoff Buddie, a husband and wife team. Their work has been exhibited at Velvet da Vinci Art Gallery in San Francisco!
From the idea stages through the actual creation and execution of the work we draw on each other's strengths for technical and aesthetic excellence. Hand felted wool and hand sculpted stoneware are the main elements we have chosen to express in our vision. The transformation that occurs in the construction of the felt is magical. Boiling water and soap are added to loose wool fibers encouraging little barbs on the fibers to relax and open. Agitating the wool causes the fibers to bind to one another. As a result the fabric shrinks and becomes dense and thick. Later the fabric is put into an acid bath on the stovetop and dyed to the desired color.

Each bead is approximately 0.75 inch (2 cm) in diameter and sits 0.5 inch (1.27 cm) high. The bracelet base is a quality silver plated metal with a snap lock closure.
