Flowers that will never wilt or fade.....

Part of my Floral Collection of pieces featuring individually handcrafted glass blooms, this one of a kind necklace is packed with delicate blossom blooms. Each one is crafted in the flame in coloured glass, and captured under crystal clear for additional depth and dimension. Visit my store for other floral gems.

I make my glass beads using a centuries old technique called lampworking (or flameworking). Using a propane and oxygen powered lampworking torch, rods of glass are heated to melting point and wrapped around a steel rod called a mandrel. Once the bead is complete it is soaked in a kiln at over 500 degrees celsius to strengthen the bead, and then cooled very slowly. No two handmade beads are identical, making each piece of jewellery unique.
