Biagi beads on trollbead bracelets, please tell me...

Does anyone have a Trollbead bracelet with Biagi beads on and if so do they look obviously different or anything?

DH is offering to buy me one of these bracelets for my belated Christmas gift and I can't believe how obsessed I have become over such minutiae,... I blame one of my best mates, I bought a Pandora bead for her for Christmas and now I can see a dangerous obsession looming!

Also, if you have Biagi beads do you know of a UK stockist with a good catalogue of beads? TIA

Oh and Happy New Year everyone!

I had a Trollbead bracelet for my Birthday a few months ago which I intended just having a few of the silver & a coloured bead on - it's now nearly full I think I am definately obsessed.

All of my beads are Troll apart from one which I think was called Lovelinks. It was half the price of a trollbead but is just as lovely. It does look different, but only if you know the beads I think. I haven't seen the Biagi beads anywhere but have a look at this

Thanks JBLM.

I am terrible when I get a bee in my bonnet, and these beads have definitely become a very large and noisy bee in mine .

I had a look at Be Charmed but they do seem to be out of stock of a lot of beads, but I guess that could be because we've just had a rather large gift giving season.... !

If your not just after plain silver troll style beads, do a google search for silver core lampwork beads . These are beads handmade using glass with a silver core for Pandora or troll bracelets.

Here is a freinds of mine's site, she's a lampwrok artist( makes beads) and she has a selection of silver core beads, they do go very quick though

P.S. Do you have a pic of your bracelet? I only want silver and glass beads on mine too.

sorry moonmother xposts. I started looking at the lampwork beads yesterday and definitely think I'll get some (if DH gets my Christmas present soon...) . They are beautiful and best of all, unique!

Are there no more beady addicts on MN tonight?
Maybe you're all out bead hunting?...
