Merino - Set of 11 Lampwork Glass Beads

Description

A comfy wool sweater and your favorite slippers - both signs that winter is just around the corner. The plum and warm blue in this set reminds me of the fabulous sweaters I've been deciding on at Talbot's website. Great color combination! This is a set of 11 lampwork glass beads handcrafted by me in my glass studio.

Seven of these beads have been encased with a generous layer of crystal clear glass for depth and have been embellished with colorful dot, scroll and stripe designs. Also included are 2 matching transparent encased disk beads and 4 plain spacer beads. Colors include ink blue, steel blue, ivory, amber, amethyst, violet, dark blue.

All my beads are handcrafted in my glass studio, and are kiln annealed. Because they are made of glass, they can break under some circumstances and should be handled gently. Please see my "store policies" section for payment, shipping, and refund policies.
