The Jesse James Beads are a nickel-free variety of strung beads. They were available next to the new display of Bead Landing Nickel-free bead strings (brown label) and have a very similar look to them. They're available in different sizes and colours, all available on a 7" strand.

These particular beads are a gorgeous sapphire blue shade. There's one large bead in the centre, surrounded by matching pairs of beads of various size and material. Some of the beads are crystal, some are beaded beads, and some of them appear to be some sort of gemstone. My favourites are the pair that look like little Christmas ornaments, with little swirls and crystals wrapping around them. I made these two beads into a set of earrings and used the others with a strip of Bead Landing Nickel-free beads to make two bracelets. The blue and white worked together beautifully.

As I mentioned for the Beax Landing Nickel-free beads, these are strung on nylon-coated wire with crimp beads on either end. I found it difficult to safely remove the beads from their string as there was very little space between the beads and the crimps. The largest bead in the centre appeared to have suffered some very minor damage upon removing them from the string, as I found three blue seed beads on the ground afterwards. I think perhaps they weren't glued down quite well enough, and this reflects in the minor deduction I've given to the "quality" criteria of this review.

Overall, these are very beautiful beads which I would recommend. The price is a little high for the amount that you receive, but with a coupon, they're very reasonable.
