History

String Ting was founded by Rachel Steed-Middleton[1] in 2020, at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] She started the brand as a charity initiative with her children in support of NHS frontline workers and other charities delivering relief to those affected by the crisis.[3][4]

Products

[edit]

The brand's products include handmade phone straps made from beaded wristlets.[5][6][1]

String Ting uses luxury materials for its original designs, such as freshwater pearls, Swarovski crystals, and Japanese Miyuki beads.[7][8]
