Trollbeads are SO Much Fun to Play With

Trollbeads is unique jewelry. Each bead has its own little history, taking its inspiration from mythology, astrology, fairy tales, fauna, flora, cultural diversity, and last but certainly not least, in the familiar things of everyday living.

What is most distinctive about Trollbeads, apart from the original design, is the use and combination of fascinating materials. The beads are made from the highest quality raw materials including sterling silver, 18 karat gold, Italian Murano glass, natural pearls and precious stones.

The original models are typically created in hard modeling wax cast and finished in metal. Some models are then set with stones. And other models are created directly in molten, red-hot glass.

The concept of Trollbeads charms was developed over the past 30 years. Today, eighteen Danish and internationally renowned jewelry designers create the beads. There are more than 200 different models. The full collection can always be viewed at www.lundtrading.com

One of the things that I love so much about the Trollbeads line, is that the company gives you so many tools to work with. My favorite tool is the card catalog to track your customers and their purchases and wishlist.

Each customer can make a list of the beads that they want to add to their jewelry, and keep it at the store for their husbands, friends and relatives to come in and buy for them for special occasions. This way they can get EXACTLY what they want and their loved ones can know what to buy for them.

"The inspiration for my beads often comes from my world travels. They often mirror a detail from another culture. I have always loved all forms of beads, their history and the details surrounding the production. Today I work with development and production of glass beads. The glass and the silver compliment each other so beautifully." Lise Aagaard

"It's very exiting for me to be to be a part of Trollbeads. Especially since I'm a part of the third generation of Trollbead artists in my family. There is all this history to Trollbeads that I get to be a part of. When I make a Trollbead, I try to give it life. There has to be a reason for the Trollbead to exist. To me Trollbeads are not just jewelry; every single Trollbead has a life, a soul and a history." Nicolas Aagaard
