Questions & Comments

What are magnetic beads? How would they be uniquely used in a design?

Jul 2nd, 2011 at 12:18:27 AM PDT by

Magnetic beads are (generally speaking) Magnetic Hematite or Hemalyke (synthetic Hematite). They act like magnets and will adhere themselves to anything metal, or to each other. These have been painted a bright pink color, as the Hematite alone is generally a very dark, dreary color.

Magnetic beads are a wonderful choice for those creating "therapeutic" jewelry (good for arthritis relief, swollen and achy joints). Many people believe that wearing magnets helps to relieve these symptoms. These can be paired with any other type of bead and used in bracelets, necklaces, anklets, etc. If you do a Google search on "magnetic jewelry", you can see all the different ways this type of bead can be used.

Hope this helps! :D

Thank you so much for your extremely detailed and informative reply:)...Wish I could make "knee" jewelry...LOL

I'll bet one could weave some kind of a "wrap" that could be placed over or around the knee. Hmm.... now my wheels are turning (again)...

The therapeutic properties of them is what I would be interested in, I have a lot of painful joints due to injuries and I have a bracelet already and it works great, so i am interested only for that reason, pink is not my color, i actually hate pink.

We may be listing some other colors and some non-painted hematite in the future. Maybe later on we'll have something a bit more to your liking. :) Keep watching! ;)

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 8:17:22 AM PDT by

also, i am curious, the description says one strand but I see multiple layers, is it folded or do you have more?

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 12:50:14 AM PDT by

We have more.:)

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 8:13:48 AM PDT by

ok, how much is shipping to 97503

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 8:15:48 AM PDT by

$1.75

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 8:22:44 AM PDT by

ok, I just refreshed and saw the first shipping answer sorry about that, my eyes are fuzzy, just woke up, lol

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 8:24:30 AM PDT by

LOL...no problem. So did I.

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 8:25:04 AM PDT by

ok, it says that they were sprayed the pink... do you think the color would be able to be removed? if so that would be to my advantage.

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 8:26:17 AM PDT by

They are primed, painted and it's baked on. I don't think it could be removed easily.

Really, I will be listing more magnetic Hematite/Hemalyke in the future. I'd hate to see you go through a lot of work just to try and remove paint from these beads

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 8:37:06 AM PDT by

That's what I was hoping to end up finding, is the hematite... do you have any flat or kinda flat ones?

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 8:39:41 AM PDT by

I'll have to check our stockroom and get back to you on that one. I'm not at our store right now and won't be until Tuesday. :(

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 8:43:45 AM PDT by

oh, are they the exact color as in the pic? cause some of the pics i've seen don't exactly match the description given.

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 8:44:49 AM PDT by

According to my computer monitor...yes...the beads currently up for auction are the same color as the picture. It's a "hotpink" or Fuschia color.

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 8:47:25 AM PDT by

no problem,..... if they are as hot, dark pink that they look to be then I may bid on them, I'm just not a frilly lighter pink kinda girly girl, lol

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 8:48:38 AM PDT by

Me either, lol!

Jul 3rd, 2011 at 8:50:07 AM PDT by

ok, cool, ty, hopefully I will be back at my puter in a bit, gotta go clean out my truck for tomorrow.
