Description

In 1971 Tom and Julie Bielman left the college culture of Ann Arbor. Tom with a degree in Electrical Engineering, and Julie with her Bachelors in Art Education. Moving to the wilds of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, they owned and operated an Antique and Art gallery. With the arrival of their son Karl and daughter Kathryn, they were compelled to move to a more stable area to raise them. They ended their journey at the Grand Traverse Region. In the Mid 1980's the families interest for the history of bead trade grew. By 1990 they had filled a small room in their house with beads and other historical artifacts. In 1991 Nawbin opened.

(A word that described how Tom felt about this obsession of the family's. As hard as they tried to down play it, they were hooked.)

Nawbin started in a 200sqft, turn of the century livery stable, and has grown in to a 2400sqft all encompassing storefront, bead Museum, and website. The best part about us is we never stop changing the beads or even the objects we carry. In the start all we had were rugs, beads, and native jewelry. and now we have ethnic artifacts from all over the world, more beads then any one shop should, jewelry from far and wide to inhouse designs of silver set local stones, and every kind of bit and piece to make your own wearable art.
