About Only Beads

Founded in New York in 2002 with a passion for gemstones, Only Beads has evolved into a trusted name in the world of wholesale gemstone beads and jewelry supplies. What began as a humble start, with a small set of hands and a pickup truck, soon blossomed into a thriving venture. Our journey took us from the bustling streets of New York to the vibrant heart of Atlanta, where we set up shop in the Atlanta Apparel Mart. Over the years, we've kept pace with the ever-changing gemstone market. We've traveled to the source, handpicked exquisite Chinese beads, and brought the allure of Ethiopian opals to the forefront. Only Beads has been a driving force in the gemstone industry for years. As our commitment to quality and convenience deepened, we ventured online in 2014, offering over 15,000 products with a stellar reputation backed by 25 thousand positive reviews. Today, as part of our dedication to supporting local businesses, we proudly source our findings from workshops in Rhode Island, bolstering American craftsmanship. Our mission is simple: to share the highest quality gemstones at the lowest prices with jewelry designers who value exceptional materials.
