The Modern Guide to Beaded Jewellery
Natural gemstones bring depth, character, and unmistakable texture to modern everyday jewellery. At Tom Wood, our beaded jewellery collection combines 100% traceable blue and black Larvikite sourced directly from Norway with golden Tiger Eye, Blue Hawk Eye, and iridescent white Mother of Pearl. Finished with durable 100% recycled 925 sterling silver hardware, each piece is designed for effortless layering or refined standalone wear.

Inside Our Stones: Traceable Norwegian Larvikite & Natural Gemstones
Unlike mass-produced glass or synthetic beads, natural stones carry distinct optical properties, from shimmering flashes of blue to warm, earthy chatoyancy. We carefully select every stone in our collection for its natural beauty and durability.
Norwegian Black and Blue Larvikite
Quarried in Norway—the only place in the world where authentic Larvikite is found—our blue and black Larvikite beads are 100% traceable from source to finished piece. Known for its deep charcoal tones and striking silver-blue mineral flash, it brings a grounded, Scandinavian elegance to every design.
White Mother of Pearl
Valued for its soft, luminous iridescence, white Mother of Pearl offers a clean, light-reflecting balance to the deeper tones of Larvikite and Hawk Eye.
Tiger Eye
Celebrated for its rich golden-brown bands and silky lustre, Tiger Eye adds warmth and a classic, earthy contrast to darker stones.
Blue Hawk Eye
A natural deep blue-grey quartz featuring subtle, shifting bands of light that pair effortlessly with cool-toned metals and denim.

How to Style Beaded Jewellery
Because these natural stones share an earthy, coastal palette, they can be worn individually or layered together without clashing. Here are three ways to style the collection:
Warm & Cool Contrast Layering
Pair the brightness of white Mother of Pearl with the deep, moody tones of Blue Hawk Eye or black Larvikite. Combining two necklaces of differing lengths creates a balanced, intentional layered look.
Stacked Wrist Styling
Combine a golden Tiger Eye beaded bracelet with a Larvikite bracelet alongside a classic wristwatch or a simple metal cuff. The warm amber tones of Tiger Eye naturally highlight the cool silver-blue flashes within the Larvikite.
