Derryaun Crafts Jewellery Gallery - Lamp work Bead and Semi Precious Stone Jewellery.

All the jewellery on the first section of this page is made with my own hand made art glass beads. Each bead is individually made and this is the process.....

using a propane and oxygen torch a glass rod is heated to a molten state and then wrapped around a steel mandrel, by rotating the mandrel gravity forms a bead. Surface decoration is applied using coloured glass rods. When the bead is completed it is put into a kiln to anneal - this is an essential part of the process to make the bead strong and durable. Each bead is unique and a work of art in its own right.
