LynFoley's Profile

Bio

I am a full-time lampworker. I take rods of glass (mostly Moretti-Effrete from Italy), melt the glass and wind it onto prepared mandrels in order to make each bead. After the beads are made they are annealed (a process that adds strength and durability to the beads.)in a kiln for about 18 hours.

After the beads are annealed and cleaned, I then use them in my jewelry.

I've been an artist all of my life, and together with my husband have been designing and creating jewelry for more than 40 years! I discovered glass beadmaking in 2003, and haven't looked back - now I use almost exclusively my own beads in my work.

For more information about me, my jewelry, my show schedule, awards I have won, my portfolio, and other details, please visit my website at: www.LynFoley.com
