They’re the very best in contemporary glass beadmaking ...  1000 dazzling and unique examples by an international array of artists!

This color survey has it all: the beads come singly or in multiples, in jewelry or sculptural pieces, flame worked and kiln formed; and their diversity and beauty are amazing. Julia Skop’s intriguing Secret Surprise showcases clear glass beads with millefiori slices at the ends. Bruce St. John Maher crafts his beads out of dichroic glass, then fuses and coldworks them at the lapidary wheel after completion. Nebula Black Necklace, from Rene Roberts, features an organic-looking focal bead adorned with fine metal leaf, glass shards, and a subtle dot decoration. An artist’s comment and detail image accompany many of the photos.
