These first beads are all experiments with frit. I don't seem to be the best frit bead maker but I do like some of the results.
These next two photographs are of handmade scarf pins and rings. I hire another jewelry maker, Donna Zalar, to make these. We pick out some of my lampwork beads together that we feel with make nice rings/pins and then Donna makes whatever style of wire creation she thinks will fit each bead.
We make rings in both sterling silver and base metal. These are sized and not adjustable. |
