The Bead Goes On is the collaboration of Lorie Cunningham and Teresa Sorlie.  We are dedicated to creating unique, one-of-a-kind jewelry made from the finest materials collected from around the world.  Each of our creations is a unique piece of wearable art.  We use only the finest quality sterling silver, Swarovski crystals, and art glass beads.  Necklaces and bracelets are strung on wire made of 49 strands of stainless steel which ensures long wear and durability.  Bangles and brangles are strung on 14  gauge sterling wire.  Many of our designs showcase glass beads created by some of the world's best lampwork artists.  Lampworking is the ancient process of creating glass beads by winding molten glass around a mandrel.  The core bead which results then serves as a "canvas" upon which the artist applies both intricate designs and processes. We create with the individual in mind.  This "one of a kind" philosophy ensures that each creation will be as unique as its wearer.  "Original and unique" - the mantra of The Bead Goes On.
