Blue Tide Pool Bead

I love the feeling of walking on the beach, listening to the crashing waves, exploring the wonders of tide pools.  This bead was made for remembering the way you feel on the beach.   This bead starts with a a core of caribbean sea glass and then is wrapped aqua dichroic and then encased in blue glass.   Decorated with silvered ivory, fine stingers of silver glass, swirled with a wave and decorated on the front with water droplets and a gorgeous murrini that remind me of the exploring the tide pools. The back is left smooth.   The specs:  Height (hole to hole): 32mm  Width: 25mm Depth at thickest point: 15mm  Bead hole: 2.5mm I handcraft each glass bead in my studio with a torch and immediately put it into a digitally controlled kiln to stabilize or anneal the glass overnight.  Not made for children. Please note there is often color variance not only in glass batches but also in the way photos will show on your monitor.
