This is one of my standard pendant patterns. Sometimes they look like feathers, or claws, leaves, or just dancin' |

Spirit Guardian pendants are the embodiment of the unseen forces around us. They are inspired by my interpretation of the writings of Carlos Castaneda. |

These designs are from ancient Alutiiq petroglyphs found on Kodiak Island, Alaska. I call my version vitro-glyphs because I am writing in glass.The pieces are not actually beads with holes in them. I wanted them to look like stones, so no holes yet. They are boro and the frit is blue moon. |

I have been making hollow forms: lamps, perfumes, ornaments, etc for many years. About two years ago I added beads, both off mandrel and mandrel-made to my repertorie. Here are some of the better ones. |

Boro spinning tops. The Top of Fashion. Jewelry you can play with, toys you can wear! I make holding findings for some of these so they can be worn as pendants and unclipped to play with. They spin nicely or they don't get out of my studio!!! |
|
Finished jewelry made by me from my own beads |
|
These are all boro flameworked vessels, blown off of the end of tubes. |

Art Glass Invitational 2005. I took over 900 pics, mostly sequences of demos, but also some general pics of people, the building dedication, etc. I will be editing and putting them up in separate pages. It was a fantatic week, full of learning, glass, good people and good times. -Don- (last updated 9/9/05) |

I have been working boro since 1974, when I owned a crafts gallery and teaching studio in Anchorage. A lot has changed since then! I make perfume bottles, oil lamps, ornaments, and lots of pendants. I also make jewelry with boro and do all my own metal work. If you would like to purchase my work, please visit my etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/fyrsmith I also have work available at Ptargmigan Arts in Homer, AK Don E.
