Our Story

Our handmade LILY and LAURA® glass beaded bracelets roll over any hand. Laura and our women artists in Nepal custom design these creations, which are handcrafted in the Kathmandu Valley. We use only Matsuno® glass beads, the finest in the world, in our bracelets. We have a fabulous and colorful inventory from which to custom pick your order based upon your color preferences. Because our bracelets are handmade, no two are exactly alike. Our business focus is to pay more than fair trade wages to our artisans in Nepal, thereby greatly improving the quality of their lives while providing you with beautiful, top quality, handcrafted glass beaded bracelets. 

Thank you for your support!

Laura has always been passionate about art, travel, and the world's cultures. She has enjoyed visiting over 30 countries. After earning a degree in art history she settled in Nepal for seven years beginning in 1996. She stayed in Nepal because she loved the people and beauty of this wonderful country. It was then that she grew to enjoy clothing and accessory design. She discovered the Nepali womens' crocheted bracelets and decided to devote her energy to helping her women friends make them something truly special. In Laura's words "Each bracelet is a little piece of artwork." Our women artists are passionate about making the LILY and LAURA® bracelets they crochet very special. After more than seventeen years of innovation and dedication we happily present to you our current collection of

LILY and LAURA® bracelets.
