Autumn Harvest Beads - Set of Five

Description

This set just screams Autumn to me. Great shades of purple, green, and orange with intense black webbing—all on a solid black base. Some of the purple has a lovely reduction on it—creating a nice metallic sparkle. The focal bead measures 28mm hole-to-hole, 22mm wide & 11mm thick. The black accent beads measure 8mm hole-to-hole and 12mm wide, and the violet accent beads measure 9mm hole-to-hole and 12mm wide. These beads were made by me and I used Effetre (Moretti) glass on 1/8" (focal) mandrel and 1/16" (accents) mandrels, annealed them carefully in my digitally controlled kiln, cleaned out all of the bead release from the holes, and they are waiting to come home with you!
