Dark Dichroic Pressed Lampwork Glass Beads

A set of 3 lampwork glass beads handmade in my Cheshire studio. Glossy black glass with a clear window across the centre to show a glittery blue dichroic core. Pressed to a flattened tab shape.

The set is made up of two medium beads approximately 15 mm in diameter, and one larger bead 18 mm in diameter (10 mm is equal to approximately 3/8ths of an inch). All were made on 1.6 mm mandrels.

The beads are thoroughly cleaned and annealed in a kiln for durability.

Photographs taken under studio light and enlarged to show detail. Every effort has been made to accurately represent the glass colours but shades may vary on different computer monitors. Please note that due to the handmade nature of these beads, sizes may vary slightly. You will receive the beads in the photographs.
