Abstract
An interlocking bead-plug system in which the beads are rubber or silicone and can be plugged together to create a chain. Each bead may have a female end with a hole and a male end with a protruding plug on opposing ends. The plug may be circular, elevated, and rubber. The hole can be stretched so that a second interlocking bead can fit through. The plug of the interlocking bead fits securely into the hole of the originating bead, creating the chain of beads.
Claims16
A jewelry system, comprising:
- a plurality of pliable individual bead bodies, wherein each bead body contains two outward protrusions on each opposing end of the bead body wherein:
- a. one plug protrusion is elevated from the bead body;
- and
- b. an opposing receiver protrusion includes a cavity in a center of the receiver protrusion;
- such that when the cavity is stretched by a tensile force, the elevated plug protrusion of a different bead body can be securely plugged within the cavity of the receiver protrusion thereby forming an endless customizable chain.

A jewelry system comprising:
- a plurality of resilient bead bodies, wherein each bead body contains two outward circular protrusions on each opposing end of the bead body wherein:
- a. one circular protrusion is elevated from the bead body;
- and
- b. an opposing circular protrusion includes a cavity in a center of the circular protrusion;
- such that when the cavity is stretched by an tensile force, the elevated circular protrusion of a different bead body can be securely plugged within the cavity of the bead body forming an interlocking bead system adapted for wear.
