"Summer Glass" Lampwork Glass Beads

Summer Glass

       Here you can obtain one of my latest summer bead sets, the beads are all made from a mixture of Effetre, Vetrofond or CIM glass. I love mixing my own colours and none more so than in transparent glass. These summer beads are all fully etched and cry out for the beach, ideal for any jewellery along with silver findings. Very popular with many customes. These sets are sold in sets of ten beads in mixed colours and sizes, but none less that 13mm by 13mm.

    There are 10 beads in this set and they were made on 1.6 mm size mandrels giving a hole size of around 2mm, this size hole is preferred by a lot of jewellery makers. The beads are fully etched and will vary in size, a the smallest being around 13mm by 13mm, making them ideal for most types of bead jewellery.  All beads will be sent to you strung on 1mm round leather cord. Due to the nature of hand crafted beads you will understand the sizes will always vary a little, but I will always try to give a truthful measurement in my descriptions.

   Like all the beads I make here in my Fenland barn studio, these beads are all fully kiln annealed in a digital controlled paragon kiln, all my beads are placed into the kiln straight from the flame. After taking my beads from the kiln they are then machine cleaned and washed, giving the buyer the option of using them in their jewellery on arrival.

   I would like to thank you all for the support you have given me by using my beads in your work. My aim is to make top quality beads at sensible prices, giving more people the chance to use lampwork beads in their jewellery and until I hear a good reason why I shouldn't, this is what I will continue to do. Please feel free to take a look around my ebay shop, I'm sure you will find something of interest. Any pictures of your work are always very welcome, its great to see how my beads are used.
