Lampwork Pendants

Spring Feeling Pendant


Lampwork Pendants- I call this one my Spring Feeling pendant. It's a handmade glass bead pendant with sterling silver wire. It may not always be spring... but, you can always add a little of the feeling of spring to your jewelry.


Artist Made Lampwork Beads

A few years ago I couldn't find lampwork beads... not made by local artists anyway. I am happy to say that things have changed since then.

This bead was the first pendant-like (big enough) bead that I found. It stayed in the cupboard for a while and eventually I made it into a pendant.


Bead Top

I used a simple wrap at the top of the bead.

Bead Bottom

And, I used a soft-bend spiral with a small sterling silver donut bead at the bottom of the glass bead. I hammered the small spiral to give it an interesting shape and to strengthen it.
