OBERLIN, OHIO — ESTABLISHED 1987
Rare African trade beads, carved jade, Venetian glass, old silver and stones with centuries of history — each one hand-selected by owner Ruth for our shop in downtown Oberlin.
Shop new arrivalsBrowse by material
The way collectors actually browse — by what a bead is made of, then where it came from.
Bead Paradise began nearly four decades ago in downtown Oberlin, Ohio. Every strand, pendant and carved stone is chosen personally by owner Ruth.
When you buy from us, you know what a bead is, where it traveled from, and roughly when it was made.
Ruth lists fresh finds each week. Join the list to see them first.
