Deep Blue Borosilicate Glass Heart Pendant

Description

I have received a few requests for some darker hearts... I get it. No matter what I think, not everyone loves pink and bright colors as much as I do! This heart is a gorgeous blue with large spots of clear showing the greenish blue beneath the surface. The big spots are outlined with small clear dots.

String it on a chain you already have, buy one from me or I can also string it on Greek leather with a sterling silver hook and eye clasp and some silver next to the heart at any length you need for an additional $20. Jewelry designers can incorporate it into their designs. You will find the hole is big enough to fit the end through with room left over. Some spots show the darker blue inside.
Average 40mm by 30mm...

All glass is shaped in the flame of a Bethlehem Barracuda surface mix torch which runs off tanked oxygen and propane. The glass goodies are then placed in a Paragon digitally controlled kiln and annealed overnight for strength, durability and color saturation. Most boro used in my studio has a high silver content which reacts with the flame chemistry (oxygen to propane mix proportions) and will continue to react in the atmosphere of the kiln. When a piece comes out of the flame it is not always the mix of color it will be when it comes out of the kiln. Each piece is responsible for me losing a little bit of sleep as I lay in bed thinking about how it will look when it comes out in the morning!

Pictures are taken on a table next to a window with natural light coming through. Borosilicate glass art tends to look darker indoors.
