MY LAMPWORK
I use Italian Effetre (also called Moretti) and German Lauscha glass to create these
handmade lampwork beads
in my studio perched on a hill above the beautiful Monterey Bay in California.
I follow my creativity as I make the designs, and if you see a design you like, bid accordingly as I don't know when the bead muses will inspire me to remake that design. (And I am so busy with special orders, that I rarely even get to put a set up here.)
I carefully create each bead over an open flame, it is then kiln annealed overnight in a digitally controlled kiln, and each bead hole is cleaned individually with a diamond drill bur.
You are bidding on the strand pictured. Photos are enlarged to show detail, a ruler is handy to gauge the size of these beads. Questions? Feel free to email, I love to hear from you!
