Bildimage.de
- German Art Photos
Very bad to search in, but VERY packed full
of medieval beadwork if you know how, and where,
to look. Features over 1,400,000 photos of art
and art treasures objects in and around Germany.
Not for the faint of heart and knowledge of German
helpful. LEO -
German/English Dictionary
Need help with that German word from the
above site? LEO will not only define in English
it you can hear it spoken. They also do French.
I love this site so much I want to make out
with it.
SCALinks.com
Over 7,500 links of interest to medievalists
and a very nicely packed beadwork category.
Research anything here.
Addall.com -
used book search
Search for those rare foreign language
books here. it's where I shop for mine. Searches
a dozen systems in the US and Europe. Don't
fear, shipping direct from Europe is cheaper
than domestic!
SCA Beadwork & Embroidery
HL Roxelana Bramante is
a very knowledgeable beadworker of the current
middle ages.
 She's from Northshield, so many
may not know of her. I told her I wanted to give
her a place to show off her work. I hope to get
her research paper on beaded flowers inthe middle
ages up there soon too, trust me folks, you'll
want to see this thing.
But for now you can see her work
and then make plans to go to her classes at Pennsic
War. She's got a TON of evidence that this sort
of floral beaded wirework is period too
