Lampwork Beads

Lapidary Beads-Handmade Lampwork Beads
Lampwork beads by Ellen Dooley are made from Moretti glass imported from Italy, Lauscha glass from Germany and Double Helix, Bullseye, ASK, and Messy glass, all fine new glasses from the United States. Borosilicate glass is also occasionally used. Most importantly, these lampwork beads are all annealed overnight in a digitally controlled kiln. This ensures their long life and durability. Many custom blended frits, pure silver wire, leaf and foil, as well as 23kt gold are used to add surface interest and texture.
