Red Apples Ceramic Beads Hand Painted Peruvian Ceramic | Fruit Jewelry | Handmade in Peru
Few fruits have collected as many meanings as the apple: knowledge, temptation, the harvest, good health, an entire city's nickname. Whatever story the wearer brings to it, a little red apple bead is ready to carry the weight — which is why the motif never really goes out of rotation.

Unlike the half-cut apple elsewhere in this catalog, this bead is the whole fruit — a plump rounded form, 0.375 inches each way, finished in deep red with a painted stem and leaf at the crown. Being fully rounded, it looks complete from every side, which matters for pieces that twist and turn as they move.
Sold individually, it makes an easy single accent: one apple set between wooden beads on an autumn bracelet, one hanging from a charm hoop, a cluster of three for a tiny orchard. The slightly narrower 1.5-2mm hole favors fine wire, headpins, and thin cord, so check your stringing material before planning anything heavy.
Teachers receive plenty of apple gifts over a career; this one has the advantage of being genuinely handmade, and small enough to actually wear.
