EOS Designs Studio

Eos Designs Studio is a Marblehead bead store, artisan jewelry boutique and teaching studio housed in a garden cottage on the edge of the historic district, a block from the beach and Old Burial Hill. The gallery sells jewelry handcrafted by local artisans, while the bead shop stocks pendants, chains, charms and components for people who make their own. It is set up for jewelry makers, collectors and bead enthusiasts alike.

The owner, an artisan jewelry designer, fills the shop with beads and components gathered on her travels, from hand-blown Czech glass and Connemara marble cabochons to vintage clasps and finds from European and South American markets, and she enjoys sharing the story behind each one. Visitors can sign up for jewelry-making classes or drop in at the Open Table to string beads and design their own pieces on the spot.
