| All of the glass jewels and the majority of
the beads are exclusively designed and fabricated in my studio.
While your individual piece may vary slightly from the works on display, the
integrity and essential form of each piece remains constant.
My jewels are produced by stacking small layers of glass and fusing them together
in a kiln at 1600 degrees fahrenheit. The glass beads are “lampworked”
using a torch.
Custom beads fashioned out of dichroic glass add a mysterious prismatic effect
to my jewelry. The special properties of this glass are the result of thin molecular
films of rare earth metals which are deposited onto clear float glass. Depending
on where the light enters the glass, it will cause the glass to reflect one color
and transmit another. Consequently, when you wear your jewelry, it reflects and
transmits many different vibrant colors.
