Vintage Mardi Gras Bead Jewelry
Our Vintage Mardi Gras Bead Jewelry Collection features authentic glass beads from the 1930s and 1940s, discovered at a New Orleans estate sale. These historic beads come from the early era of Mardi Gras celebrations, long before modern plastic throws became common. Each bead carries the color, craftsmanship, and spirit of vintage New Orleans. By transforming these rare beads into bracelets, necklaces, and earrings, we give new life to materials that once sparkled along the parade routes of the city.Every piece is slightly different depending on the assortment of vintage beads used, making each design a unique and magical piece of New Orleans history you can wear.
