These beads are hollow, making them light for their size. Many are rolled in gold foil and strung with semi precious stones.

These necklaces have a metallic silver or copper sheen. The level of propane in the flame brings the silver or copper within the glass to the surface. They are quite magical.

I love working with glass. Bringing together the elements of fire, color, light, and form, is an endlessly fascinating and spontaneous form of creativity. Creating beads with bold patterns and design feels quite playful, while combining glass and precious metals has a more mysterious and magical quality to it, with often surprising results. I enjoy making unique pieces of colorful glass jewelry combining the textures and shapes of various other elements such as sterling, bone, agate, and semi-precious stones. Custom work is an interesting and welcomed challenge.
