Papaya Beads Peruvian Ceramic | Fruit Jewelry | Hand Painted | Jewelry Making Supplies | Handmade in Peru
Be the first to review this productCut a papaya open and you find one of the prettiest color stories in the fruit bowl: sunset-orange flesh shading into gold, studded with glossy dark seeds. This bead borrows the whole palette, with the warm gradient and seed speckle painted across a graceful teardrop form that tapers just like the real fruit.

The elongated shape is the practical bonus. At a half inch long and a quarter inch wide, it hangs beautifully point-down, which makes it a natural for earring drops and pendant dangles where rounder beads can look static. The taper also catches light along its length, giving the glaze an extra gleam in motion.
Its 1.5-2mm hole accepts beading wire, silk, and fine cord. Combine it with pineapple and watermelon shapes for a full tropical fruit stand, drop a pair from ear wires for instant summer earrings, or use its warm tones to bridge the orange and yellow sections of a multicolor strand. A trio spaced along a chain makes an easy, breezy vacation necklace.
