Beadworx

With the chance meeting of 2 incredible people, Lance Durban and Roseann Vitassa whose life missions it has been to help impoverished nations with job creation. Their stories evolved separately over the years but a chance meeting in 2015 has created a network and opportunity for over 50 Haitian artisans. Haitian Beadworx artisans have spent several years mastering the street art craft of bending and wrapping wire frames and glass beads to make whimsical folk art. Originally developed in South Africa, Roseann lived there 15 years ago and collaborated with her daughter Kristen and local South African artists to develop the Beadworx line. She brought these beautiful pieces to people around the world, and we will continue to do so. Extol Accessories Ltd., acquired the rights to Beadworx from production to sales. Extol Accessories is a family owned company that has steadily over 30 years provided jobs, education and even emergency shelter in Haiti. Part of our mission to increase job opportunities in Haiti. Wider access to the world market provides endless opportunities for growth for people in Haiti.
