Klimt 2026 Edition: New Gold, Silver & a Farewell

Why Gustav Klimt Belongs on a Bracelet

What draws so many of us back to Gustav Klimt is rarely museum grandeur. It is intimacy: warm gold catching the light, intricate patterns wrapping around two figures, and spirals that feel alive. Black Raven Beads’ Klimt 2026 Edition is available now at The Alternative Bead, revisiting that artistic universe through handcrafted sterling silver and colourful glass.

Warm Light: Klimt Gold 2026 Edition

At the heart of the release sits the newly designed Klimt Gold 2026 Edition glass bead (€42). Built around rich golden tones, stark contrasts and fine decorative detailing, it celebrates colour, creativity and individuality. Placed between darker silver pieces, its warm surface acts like a lantern on the wrist, catching light each time your hand moves.

Larger Silver Presence: The Kiss and Tree of Life

Two of Klimt’s best-known works return as larger handcrafted sterling silver beads (€54 each), offering stronger presence on the bracelet at an accessible price. Klimt The Kiss 2026 Edition honours closeness, affection and the quiet moments when words are unnecessary. Beside it, Klimt Tree of Life 2026 Edition traces growth, roots and connection through flowing branches and intricate spirals.

For styling, try framing the golden glass between both silver designs, then finishing one end with the existing sterling silver Klimt Tree of Life Stopper (€35). Every piece fits Pandora, Trollbeads and standard charm bracelets, so you can weave them straight into a bracelet you already wear.

The Collectors Set and a Fond Farewell

If you want the complete story together, the Klimt Collectors Set 2026 Edition (€221) gathers the new sterling silver and glass designs in one set. It includes two Klimt glass beads, with one included as a complimentary loyalty gift for collectors. Meanwhile, because the original Klimt designs were officially retired earlier this year, any remaining first-edition beads represent a last chance before that earlier chapter closes.

As an independent, family-run EU boutique and official Black Raven Beads retailer, we offer every piece at manufacturer price parity, with Beadcoins earned through The Bead Collective and free EU shipping from €150.
