It was back in Denmark, 1976 when it this trend was started by Soren Nielson. Nielson created the first trollbead jewelry - a silver one, and used a wax model for it PLUS bored a hole, making it possible to bind similar beads together. Eventually, this first-ever sterling silver trollbead was known as “The Mask”.

After four years, thanks to Lisa Aagaard’s efforts, she started exploring all the possibilities on how to create trollbead jewelry using various materials. This resulted to the first glass trollbeads which captured the interest of the world in an instant in 2002.
