I'm having a month off! ... I'll see you back in March! :D

MY GLASS STUDIO IS CURRENTLY CLOSED. I'm away from the studio and unable to process any orders until I return in March. Cheers, Karen xxx

GLASS BEADS


Beautiful and unique handmade glass beads!  Every bead is crafted individually by Karen using traditional lampworking techniques.

Each bead is individually (and carefully!) made in a very hot flame and is then directly placed in a kiln to slowly cool for several hours for durability.

I use a 1.6mm mandrel to make the bead hole. When finished the bead holes are just a little under 2mm.

My beads are photographed inside in natural light, I don't adjust the photo colour or light in any-way. Glass is a little tricky to photograph, some transparent colours look darker or lighter in the photograph than in reality - if this is the case, I have made a note in the description :D

MTO - all my beads will be 'Made To Order'  - Please allow up to one week for these to be posted - I do try to have some of everything stock ready to send though :D
