Summary: In Beadwork, very small, usually uniformly coloured, beads are transformed into intricate articles or embellishments. Each bead is just an element in the larger pattern and the overall design creates the impact, rather than the individual bead. The Bead-work discussed and illustrated in this book has been categorized according to the geographical region in which it was made. Beadwork from different areas is usually readily identifiable by the design, colour and size of the beads, the use to which they have been put, and also the methods of construction.
