~ Lampwork: Custom Bead and Set Design Ideas...~ Beads which you see listed below have all been sold... but, I am showing them here so that you can see the various types of beads which I enjoy making, and browse them for design ideas... ~ Beads which are ready for immediate purchase are located in my current inventory, so if you want instant gratification, please take a look at the items in the Beads - Current Inventory sections of this site. ~ If you are interested in ordering one custom bead or a set of beads, take a look through the selection of beads below, and then fill out the order form at the bottom of this page (or click on the Order Info section for custom ordering instructions). I will email you with a price estimate and delivery date, and I ask that you provide me with a deposit of half the amount of the estimated cost at the time of placing the order. I will try to make you beads which are as similar as possible to the design which you specified, although keep in mind that these are unique, handmade items, and cannot be reproduced exactly each time - happy browsing :) ~ NOTE: All price estimates are in $ US dollars. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

~ FOCAL BEADS ~ | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
|
Description: I often enjoy spending an hour or two at the torch and making one fabulous focal bead :) The focal beads are best used as pendants or centerpieces for necklaces... ~ Large feature focal bead, cased in clear glass, uncased, or hollow, on its own or accompanied by two smaller accent beads. ~ ~ ~ Price Range: $15.00 - $50.00 U.S. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Here are some examples of various focal beads which I am willing to attempt to reproduce as closely as possible to the original. If you are interested in ordering any of the beads below, please email me at beadcave@hotmail.com and indicate the inventory number under the photo, and I will email you back to provide you with a time-to-delivery estimate (click on photo to see a close-up picture).

~ MATCHING BEAD SETS ~ |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
|
Description: The most popular orders are bead sets, probably because they lend themselves well to a full necklace or bracelet design. Since perfectly matching sets and pairs are a technical challenge for any lampworker because each bead is made by hand individually, a full set of matching beads is very satisfying... ~ Medium to large focal beads in striking designs, accompanied by smaller accent beads and spacers to complement the design. ~ ~ ~ Price Range: $35.00 - $95.00 U.S.

~ MIXED BEAD SETS ~ |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
|
Description: I think that these are the most fun beads to make, because I can just pick out a pallette of colours and design a mix of beads that I think will go well together... :) ~ ~ ~ Price Range: $35.00 - $95.00 U.S.
