Founded in 1993, Scottsdale Bead Supply grew from its roots in a quaint white farm house in Old Town Scottsdale to the stylish showroom it is today. Its owners, Mike and Kelly Charveaux, are masterful designers of jewelry, as well as custom inlay and silver components. Two years ago, the company moved into a state-of-the-art, 5000 square foot showroom that features beads from all over the world: Japanese Delicas, African trade beads, Bali silver, local artisan lamp glass, and everything in between. The store carries only the finest quality of pearls, Austrian crystals, precious, and semi-precious gemstones. While we do have an amazing showroom, we also offer a bustling mail-order service for our out-of-town clients.

For beginning jewelry artists, Scottsdale Bead Supply is an unbeatable resource. The store hosts guest instructors in all sorts and levels of skills, including the very basics of finishing a bracelet, pearl knotting, wire craft, and bead weaving. Additionally, we have a highly trained staff who would love to help you learn new techniques. Our resident instructors are extremely talented, and always on hand to assist with any creation you have.

For all of these reasons, Scottsdale Bead Supply was voted “Best Bead Store” in the Phoenix New Times for 2007. Our employees take great pride in their work, and look forward to helping you create your next wearable work of art.
