Organics

I handmake all my lampwork beads using a variety of Italian, German and American glass.  All beads are made by me, at my torch and then kiln annealed using a digital controller.  All beads are made on a 3/32 mandrel unless otherwise noted.
 
Organics run the gammet!  Colors, textures, size, shape.....I LOVE ORGANICS!
