Jackfruit wood is renowned for its rich color and durability, making it an excellent material for crafting beads. The wood exhibits a fine grain and a golden-yellow to reddish-brown hue that deepens with age, lending a natural warmth and elegance to the beads.
This batch pulls on the yellow side, so I immediately got a LOT! This color is so sweet and easy to design with!
- 8mm Jackfruit (Nangka) Wood smooth round bead
- 15.5" strand
- Approximately 53 beads per strand
- Each strand is slightly different based on the one-of-a-kind nature of the wood
*Quick Note: Using jackfruit wood for bead-making is also considered environmentally friendly. Since the jackfruit tree is primarily cultivated for its fruit, utilizing the wood—often from pruned branches or trees that are no longer fruit-bearing—maximizes the use of the entire plant.
This practice supports sustainable crafting by reducing waste and promoting the efficient use of natural resources.

Every piece tells a story of craft, patience, and intention. We believe in the beauty of handmade, the joy of creation, and the meaning found in what we choose to wear.The Bead Gallery
