VictoriaGail Lampworked Beads Mermaid's Treasure Opaletta Beads-71 Beads

Description

Handmade by Me   This is one of my saturated dichroic shaped sets.  I made four different types of cane for this set. One cane is translucent white, one hot pink, one cobalt blue and one aquamarine. All the canes contain five different colors of dichroic.  I used the translucent white cane as a base and then added a spiral layer of silver and copper dichroic topped by a spiral layer of moonlight and candy apple red dichroic. I then encased it with the other three canes, laid in a spiral.  I shaped the beads using a brass tool into the tablets and coins. After shaping, I heated two areas on each side of the shaped beads and twisted the glass into a swirl, using the hot pink cane. I love all of these colors and always think about mermaids when I use them. The colors are intense and the shimmer of dichroic underneath makes them see to glow. The round beads are made with the canes alone and have two swirls each. The sizes are as follows-- 17 Tablet Beads - 18mm X 18mm; 18
Coin
Beads - 18mm X 18mm; 30 Beads - 10mm; 6 Beads - 9mm.  The set as shown is more than three feet long.
As my beads are handmade, I round to the nearest mm for listing.
