A tiny spacer means the next letter. Two spacers mean the next word.

How it works

1

Each letter is a pattern

Morse code writes every letter as a short pattern of dots and dashes. A is dot dash. S is dot dot dot. That is the whole alphabet: 26 little patterns.

2

Beads stand in for the pattern

On our jewelry a round bead is a dot and a tube is a dash. A tiny spacer marks the space between letters, and two spacers mean the next word.

3

Together, they spell your word

Read the beads left to right, one letter at a time, and the word appears. Nobody else knows what it says unless you tell them.

Try it yourself

Letters, numbers, spaces all work. Most bracelets fit up to 15 letters and most necklaces up to 20. A space between words shows as two spacers.

Every piece arrives with a small printed card showing your word and its code, so the message is never lost.
