Hi Charmingpooh I recommend also NYC. There is actually the beading district in NYC. I found this information from another site helpful: Beads World, Inc., 1384 Broadway, NY, NY 10018, (212) 302-1199 index Metaliferous, 47th St (bet. 5th & 6th Ave) - (upstairs a little cramped, disorganized, but still worth while perusing) M & J Trimmings, Avenue of the Americas (aka 6th Avenue). I believe they may be between 37th & 38th Street. World Beads & Trimming Inc., 25 W. 38th Street (bet. 5th & 6th Ave), (212) 730-1228 or (212) 994-5709 Tojo Soho, Avenue of the Americas (aka 6th Avenue) & 37th Street Phoenix Jewelry - 37th street York Beads - 37th Street New York Beads, Avenue of the Americas (aka 6th Avenue) - bet. 38th & 39th Street Beads on Fifth, Inc. 376 Fifth Ave, (212) 244-6616 or (212) 244-6617 Gemstones of Africa, nybead.com - ny bead Resources and Information. This website is for sale! Several gem stone places around 47th and Broadway include: Wonder Sources - Wonder Source Inc. (formerly Earthstone) Big Stone Quality Beads International on 46th What's left of the "bead district" is on 37th between Fifth Ave and Broadway and up and down Broadway from 37th. there are also some bead stores with gemstones around the Diamond District at 47th at Broadway. NY Yellow pages are a good resource. So are the on line phone books. I also found this for Indian beads: 10 West 37th Street New York, New York 10018-7497 Phone: 212-594-7040,Fax: 594-8226,800-223-6676 Fax: 212-594-7040,Fax: 594-8226,800-223-6676 Website: Welcome to York Beads - Your Czech Beads Whole seller Email: yorkbeads@aol.com Hours: Established 1924, Czech seed and all other glass beads, including beads from India and Japan. Not a full service retail store and carries few findings My favorite place to go (and owned by Indians if I recall correctly) is arround the corner from "Elite Designs" on West 37th Street. The best place for small pearls etc. Link to Map: Google Maps
