Terra Shells and Nuggets Lampwork Bead Set

Description

Free Worldwide Shipping!

Terra is one of my favorite glass colors and sadly, it is no longer being made. Terra has a very high silver content and the colors are spectacular. I've sold two sets using Terra in the last week. So, if you like this color and you like shells, get them while you can because even though I take measures to preserve Terra as much as possible, it will not be around forever.

This listing contains four shells measuring approximately 18mm x 18mm. For reasons I cannot explain, I made two with 1/16" mandrels and two with 3/32" mandrels. Don't ask, I don't know why. Sometimes it's like I was drinking and torching. Don't tell anyone, since it's probably dangerous. (Just kidding, I can count on one hand how many drinks I have each year)

You will also receive 2 square "nugget" shaped beads. They have nicely tapered sides and are so comfortable to wear in bracelets. Both nuggets were made on 1/16" mandrel and have clear dots on both sides to magnify the effects of the Terra. They measure 15mm x 15 mm.

PLEASE NOTE: the lighting used to photograph this bead may make it appear differently than in other types of lighting situations. I try my best to make the colors look as accurate as possible to my monitor's settings. The photo is also "blown up" so you are able to see fine details.

General Information regarding my lampwork beads: All of my lampwork beads are handmade by me in my home based studio in Indiana. Because they are handmade, there will never be a perfect machine made bead, but I do strive for perfection as much as I am humanly able. My beads have been annealed for strength in a digitally controlled kiln and the holes have been thoroughly cleaned of bead release.
