Five Droplet Discs - Glass Lampwork Necklace By Amy Holms
This set of 5 glass discs was created in my studio from Moretti Italian glass. Colored tones of transparent glass are pressed into discs that overlap on another when worn, adding further color variations to the existing 3 colors of glass. It includes 2 light color transparent discs, 2 medium color transparent discs and a dark color transparent disc for the center. Silver spacers are shown, but the set can also be worn without. The beads are approximately 12mm wide x 18mm long (1/2″ × 11/16"). The beads have been kiln annealed for longevity and cleaned with a diamond reamer. The beads were created on a 3/32" mandrel. The necklace is sold with 16" 1mm sterling silver omega with sterling silver clasp.Artist: Amy HolmsArtist StatementThis is a fun set with a minimalist style but a lot of interest!This set is best hung simply from a chain, but could be used as part of a larger bead creation.Please note that these sets are made to order.

YOUR ITEM WILL BE CUSTOM MADE FOR EACH ORDER.Artist’s StatementMy architectural background has led to a love of clean, colorful and modern styling. I am currently working to translate this aesthetic into the fluid medium of glass. One of my favorite comments about my work is that my beads are like ‘liquid color.’ I am thrilled by the combination of pure color and clean design with the transparency that glass affords me. I am highly interested in both structure and form, and strive to create work that is both elegant and functional.Each of my pieces is handmade from Italian, German and American glass. All work is kiln-annealed for longevity and cleaned with a diamond reamer, ready for use.Available Styles:Amethyst
