Well you know I'm going to have some things that are water based! I wanted beads that were light as a water drop but with all the colours of the ocean, or a lake. Using a custom blend of different colours gave me just the right look, and then Ihand faceted each of these little beads so that they have depth and texture. They're light and lovely. Yay!
Eachwater drop bead is individually made by me! Each bead measures approximately 8 mm x 6 mm. They hang on sterling silver ear wires for a total length of approximately 35 mm.
My hands made these beads. I use Effetre glass, a little CIM and occasionally Vetrofond. All my beads are kiln annealed, thoroughly cleaned and inspected. There is no paint on any of my beads, just glass upon glass upon glass.
Please remember the jewelry looks larger than life in the pictures which is why it is important to check the size. I have tried to capture the colours as accurately as possible but many monitors vary.
