I came up with this design in the pursuit of the perfect cowl. I love the loose, lounge-y cowls I’ve had listed in my shop, but I wanted to create something more like a classic cowl, thick and close to the neck. I love the ribbed texture added to this design.
Pick a Winner for EFC February Challenge – Love!
Glass0Beads
Notes from the artist:
The lampwork beads I use have been made by other glass artisans to promote these artisans through my artisan jewelery; an alternative to precious gems and precious metals. I like to work with metals like steel, aluminum, and copper and add lampwork beads and other glass beads for handcrafted glass bead artisan jewelery.
It’s a wonderful life! I am able to devote all my waking hours to creating things of beauty.

Lovely Burgundy/Purple colors in this handmade Cabochon. It also has Silvers, Clear and Milky white Glasses swirling into eachother.
This would be great for seed beads and a nice peyote, or bead woven design.
The measurements are 1 5/8inches or 4.2cm round
This Pendant was thrown on a potter’s wheel and fused with recycled glasses from a fused glass friend and other glasses.
The Piece itself has been fused with Stained Glass during the Kiln-firing process. I have combined many kinds of glass (clear, opaque, milky, and different colors) The Glasses become liquid and bleed into each other in the kiln swirling ands blending at the edges. Finally as I cool the kiln the glass fractures and crackles but with a smooth glass top. The crackling refracts light and glistens in the sun.
Perfect for your jewelry designs to be made into your new favorite necklace.
