Shark Beads Peruvian Ceramic | Hand Painted | Jewelry Making Supplies | Handmade in Peru
Few requests come up more often at a kids' craft table than a shark — the dorsal fin alone makes a beach bracelet feel ten times cooler. Shark Week devotees, scuba divers, and seven-year-olds agree on very little except this. Sharks signal nerve and fascination in equal measure, which is why they turn up on surfer cord wraps and marine-biology-student keychains alike.

This ceramic version compresses the predator into a 5/8-inch silhouette: streamlined body, raised fin, and a painted face that lands somewhere between fierce and friendly. Deep blues and grays over white give it the classic countershaded look of the real animal, sealed under a glossy glaze.
Knot it onto braided cord for a surf-style wristband, hang it from a zipper pull, or anchor an ocean necklace with it between wood and glass beads. The hole takes hemp, waxed cotton, and doubled beading wire without complaint, and fired ceramic shrugs off the knocks a bag charm absorbs daily.
One shark per design is usually plenty; it does the talking on its own.

These little shark beads are SO cute and worked so well in the gift I made for my friend who loves sharks. I made it for her birthday and she absolutely loved it!
