Welcome to Sonqo Craft
Hi! My name is Kate, and I handcraft all the beaded pieces you see here. I am based in Serbia and ship orders worldwide. If you have any questions about ordering, shipping, custom designs, or collaborations — feel free to reach out via social media or at info@sonqo-craft.com.
Partner Funds
I handmade Charity Paw keychains to give you a symbol of compassion that makes a real difference: 50% of the revenue from every Paw goes to funds that rescue and care for stray animals. Donations support TNR programs, medical care, and rehoming efforts. My current partner foundation is:
Regardless of where you buy these Charity Paws — stores, markets, via the foundations, or directly orders — the 50% donation remains guaranteed. Reports with exact amounts are available on Sonqo Craft’s social media channels.

Materials
Beads
I use original Miyuki Japanese glass beads, primarily the cylindrical type. They are small and perfectly uniform, ensuring the pieces are lightweight, smooth, and do not snag on clothing.
Threads
I weave with specialized nylon threads from Japanese manufacturers Miyuki and One-G. They offer high tensile strength and zero stretch. I also use non-elastic nylon cords for bracelet ties and as a base for fine necklaces.
Hardware
The majority of the jewelry features stainless steel clasps and components, while certain decorative elements are made from durable metal alloys.
I prioritize technological metals over precious ones to ensure durability, as stainless steel does not tarnish and requires less maintenance than silver or gold.
Stones
I use natural stones: Labradorite, Amazonite, Chrysocolla, and African or Dalmatian Jasper. I consciously avoid precious and rare minerals, as their mining is often linked to non-transparent labor conditions or environmental risks in developing countries.
Vegan-friendly
- Threads requiring waxing are treated with mineral wax instead of beeswax.
- I use B-7000, a synthetic-based adhesive contains no animal fats or bone-derived ingredients.
- I strictly do not use natural pearls, mother-of-pearl, silk, or leather.
Care
To keep your beaded stuff as good as new, handle it with care:
- avoid prolonged contact with moisture, perfume, and creams;
- avoid creases, falling on a hard surface;
- do not allow children to play with them;
- take off before intense workout or shower.
