Some days ago, I was invited at
Trollbeads Found A Fan Party (
Hội cuồng TROLLBEADS - No FAKE) in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
Trollbeads The Original is a Danish jewelry brand that was founded in 1976. It specializes on glass beads and silver/gold beads with each bead design comes with a meaning.
The event was about Trollbeads fanatics and collectors, gathered together at a café in Dong Khoi Street to share their one passion. Not only it was about meeting new friends, the event was also about team work. Fun games were played and a raffle draw was made with Trollbeads jewelry as prizes.

The Trollbeads Story
The story about the original and unique Trollbeads all started in
Denmark in 1976. The first bead, which later gave name to the Trollbeads
collection, was a small bead decorated with no less than 6 faces. It
was designed by Søren Silversmith and sold from his father Svend's
jewellery shop in central Copenhagen. The beads were created at a time
where it was fashionable to have a silver bead hanging on a leather
thong around the neck. But instead of letting the bead hang in an
eyelet, Søren wanted to let the leather cord go through the bead. Later
on, Søren's sister, Lise, began to put the beads on silver bracelets,
one on each bracelet.
Lise opened another jewellery store and one day a customer asked to
have an extra bead put on her bracelet. The storekeeper was surprised
but followed the customer's wish. From then on, the adventure and
Trollbeads movement started. In cooperation with the customers and
according to their wishes, the collection grew. This was the invention
and the beginning of an original jewellery concept that today is enjoyed
worldwide.
