Aboca Beads

In the heart of downtown Damariscotta, ABOCA Beads offers a hands-on space where creativity takes shape. This bead and jewelry shop showcases pieces made on site, inviting visitors to browse ready-to-wear designs or create something of their own. The collection includes gemstones, freshwater pearls and beads made from glass, wood, bone and ceramic, with materials sourced from around the world alongside locally handcrafted Maine pieces. Guests can work on projects in the store, choose kits to take home or collaborate on custom designs, repairs or redesigns. Classes and small-group experiences add to the welcoming, interactive atmosphere, making ABOCA Beads a place to explore personal style and creative expression.
