Glowing Lampwork, 3A grade Tourmaline Bracelet

Description

I became besotted with these glass lampwork double drilled beads when a friend posted her handiwork. When they came home to my workroom, they sat on the shelf for a long time. They were so lovely (and justifiably expensive) that my design had to be worthy of them.

One day I bought some very high grade tourmaline beads from an overseas dealer, and I knew they belonged with the lampwork. I found the copperlined ebeads, and put them all together in a place where I could consider them, wait till I felt right about a combination. Here before you is the result of my musings. I love to wear this bracelet, assembled on stretchy memory wire. The composition is secured with a beautiful, sterling silver toggle from the silversmiths on the Island of Bali.

Thank you for enjoying at my favorite bracelet with me, and for stopping by my shop.
