Handmade Lentil Lampwork Beads With Sterling Silver Chainmaille Earrings In Blues And Golds
I may be hooked on Chainmaille now. I learned how to do a couple of different designs and incorporated my own lampwork beads into some lovely dangling earring sets. This set is made completely of sterling silver. The lampwork beads are lintel in shape and I used Double Helix glass to make them which gives them the silvery luster that reflects blues, violets, and golds. The set measures 7.5 cm / 2 1/2" in length. I think they are lovely and I hope you do too!

Graceful Bead Designs
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.

Jun 21, 2013I was so happy when Grace agreed to try her hand at recreating her vision of these beads. Not only does she have innumerable years of experience creating unique and gorgeous lamp work beads, she exhibits an innate instinct for color, creative vision and perfection. I was immediately drawn to her willingness to listen, as well as the ease with which she interpreted exactly what I wanted. She then proceeded to create immediately, without fear or trepidation, the most beautiful beads. She is a very capable lamp work artist in every aspect of bead making. I shall not hesitate to call upon her services for all future endeavors, and I highly recommend her to any others who have come to expect excellence in custom lamp work beads. Thank you Grace, for a job well done! BRAVO!!
