Jewelry




My name is Christine Wright and I began beadweaving more than 35 years ago. I am currently a Master Artisan with the Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsmen and the Haverford Guild of Craftsmen.
Beadweaving is a process where individual beads are sewn together with needle and thread. Foundational to my designs are very small and simple seed beads, and even when I limit myself to the certain beads, I have a nearly infinite range of possibilities for shapes, textures and color combinations.
When I create a piece, I start with a shape, color scheme, focal bead or general concept and then expand on the design from there. I also incorporate techniques and concepts that I have learned from other mediums – from pixel art to pointillism – taking my jewelry into unexpected directions.
I believe that jewelry should go well beyond “special occasions.” My designs range broadly from “fun to formal,” but even the formal pieces can be worn anywhere and with nearly anything. I want my jewelry to be worn because it makes a person feel good – regardless of the occasion.
