Silver Core Beads

Silver Core Beads

Posted by Lois Jones on 12/28/2006
I fell in love with silver core beads before I started lampworking. I immediately knew that I had to make them in different sizes. It is a challenge but when they turn out it is a blast!

Big Tiger
This is one of the largest beads I have ever made and it's a real Tiger!! This large tiger bead is 1 1/2 inches at its widest point and has a 1/2 inch sterling silver core! It is a large focal bead that would be beautiful on a silk cord or silver chain.

Hot Pink
This is one of my favorites! It is made with several different encased canes and contains a 1/4 inch siver core.

Deep Purple
This gorgeous bead has a purple red base with green and blue reactive glass applied as a surface decoration. The wonderfully reactive glass gives wonderful hues of green, yellow, blue, with a touch of black as an accent.

Jungle Bead
I just love this bead! It was actually a mistake because I picked up the wrong stringers to decorate the bead.

Rainbow Set
This is my absolute favorite set right now, every color in the rainbow can be seen in each one of these matches beads. These two lovely matching silver core beads can be stacked as shown or used singly in any jewelry design.

Winter Garden
This 1/2 inch sterling silver core bead was so much fun to make! I love flowers, particularly Irises in full bloom which I created on the surface of the bead using my own hand made petal canes, there are four flowers held together by a stamen cane.

Red Hots Set
This beautiful set was certainly difficult to capture with the camera, the red hues that you see appear more purple in person and the white glass really sets off the wonderful colors! These two lovely matching sterling silver core beads can be stacked.
