The first manmade glass was produced about 3500 B.C. Beads are part of every culture arond the world.
My beads start out as rods of glass that are worked over a torch using a mixture of natural gas and oxygen. The torch's heat(1700-1900 degrees F) melts the glass, which I wind onto a stainless steel mandrel. Each color in a bead comes from applying a different colored glass rod. The design is limited only by your imagination!
Each bead is made individually, so no two beads are exactly alike, they are one-of-a-kind.
