Boro Bead Sets

  « Borosilicate Beads

(Boro/Borosilicate/Pyrex Glass Beads)

Boro Bead Sets Vivid opalescent boro colors, I've used both Northstar and Glass Alchemy. These sets of beads are the very best results of my love for color! One of the most important parts of working with hard glass is "playing" with all of the wonderful colors and possibilities each one offers.

I sell my beads and sculpted flowers via Etsy, my user name is Uvanomos. You can also purchase my work at the West of the Moon gallery in Flagstaff, AZ and Animas Beads.

I am 25 years old, and have worked with glass for 12 years, getting my start when I was just 13 years old. This is now my 4th year working with borosilicate glass and I am still immersed in what feels like a fresh budding passion every time I create.

I'm now a full time student at NAU pursuing a degree in Sociology with a minor in jewelry metalsmithing. I will be paying for my education through the sale of my work. I really appreciate the support of all of my customers and glass enthusiasts! Besides glass & school, I love to Hike in the Grand Canyon!
