Firefly Lampwork Beads - Stormy Seas Glass Bead Sand Dollar Ornament

Description

The short story: Me. The sea. Sand dollars. Love.

The long story: can be found here - http://tinyurl.com/etsy-sand-dollar

CONSTRUCTION: The glass bead was made by me using Vetrofond and Effetre glass. The base bead color turquoise, with teal, aqua and silvered ivory "waves"

The ornament is tied with raffia and wired to the shell with very fine gauge wire. The bead is held in place by a raffia knot on each side.

ABOUT THE SHELLS: The shells are "au naturel" -- I have not treated or coated them with anything. They usually have small chips and discolorations, along with some grains of sand still inside.

The bead was created on a 1/8" mandrel. All of my beads are created in my studio by me and fully annealed in my computer-controlled kiln.
