Purple Passion Square Lampwork Beads

$30

This set of 9 beads are so pretty! I can just see them used in a bracelet and earrings or a necklace. My beads are like AKC puppies, you create them, and they turn out so cute, but you eventually have to sell them. Each bead was was shaped in a square press of graduating sizes, the center bead being the largest (5/8" x 5/8" / 17 mm x 17 mm square, 3/8"/ 7 mm wide). The smallest beads measure 1/2" x 1/2" / 12 mm x 12 mm square and 1/4"/ 7 mm thick. The process is kinda complicated and would be lengthy so I'll just tell you that it is half Double Helix Clio, half Plum, divided with a silvered ivory stringer with Double Helix Triton raised dots. The spacers are encased Double Helix Clio. ♥I work with soft glass of many different brands and types. Generally I use a 1/16 sized mandrel unless otherwise noted. As a professional lampworker, my beads are annealed in my digitally controlled kiln for strength and durability. I personally inspect each bead for flaws and I thoroughly clean the bead holes with my trusty Dremel tool. ♥Bead sets are only temporarily strung to inspire your creative juices! Bead Hoppers and spacers used are included in the sale. ♥All photographs are color balanced to represent the colors as accurately as possible; however different monitors do display colors differently, and the photographs are sometimes larger than life to show detail. ♥If for any reason you are not be satisfied with your purchase I am more than willing to exchange or refund according to customer desires. ♥International Society of Glass Beadmakers ♥Handmade in America Craft Artist Guild ♥Self Representing Artist of Lampwork

I am a self representing artist, making glass beads using 104 COE glass from various makers.

I particularly enjoy making beads that are organic. I also enjoy doing sculptural pieces. Anything I do is one of a kind. I can try to be exact, but soft glass has no exact nature.

I'm willing to try new things, I actually thrive on a challenge. But if I can't do it, I'm straight up honest if I can't fulfill your wishes.
