BeadWords for Josephyne is a unique line of handcrafted bead accessories inspired by poetry and created by Beng Ragon as tribute to her late mother, Josephine Benavides Ragon. From earrings, necklaces, bracelets and anklets to bead chimes, beaded shirts, beaded candles, trinkets and more bead possibilities – each piece is inspired by words and images bursting with colors of nature, love, and life.

The concept fuses the art of beading with the art of poetry with different kinds of beads pieced together like words to tell a story. Its style is an eclectic mix of visually hip accessories with a touch of ‘60s bohemian, blending ethnic and classic elements to create timeless pieces that appeal to the soul.

Beadwords for Josephyne boasts of its own collection like "Soulful Josie," Boho-styled pieces that represent big chunks of mother’s love, blending indigenous materials and semi-precious stones for the "soulful hippie." Other bead lines include "Beadrops" (chandelier earrings inspired by nature), "Beaded Love" (seed beads forming different images of love), "Pinned Souls" (dangling earrings with colorful specks of life), and "Beaded Memories" (bracelets and anklets adorned with pieces from the past) among others.
