Vibrant and Authentic Hand-Painted Inca Beads from Peru - Choice of Design and Size
Be the first to review this productGeometric designs in the old Inca visual vocabulary wrap each of these ceramic beads — stepped motifs, bold borders, and symbolic patterns in deep, saturated color. They read like tiny painted artifacts, which is very nearly what they are. For anyone drawn to South American textiles, archaeology, or folk art, they offer an easy way to carry that fascination in wearable form.

Skilled Peruvian artisans shape every bead from quality ceramic clay, paint the designs entirely by hand, and kiln-fire the finished piece so the colors stay vivid for the life of the jewelry. Since each one is decorated individually, no two emerge identical; that variation is the signature of genuine handcraft, not a defect to apologize for.
A 1–1.5mm hole runs through each bead, sized to suit most common stringing materials. Mix them into multi-strand necklaces, build an earthy bracelet around a single focal bead, or scatter them through a mixed-media piece and let their patterns set the palette.
Offered in the design and size you select, they bring a measure of Andean tradition to whatever you happen to be making.
Charm Dimensions
Most Xinar charms measure approximately 10–25 mm including bail. Sizes vary by design — check each product's specifications above for exact measurements.
