Fused & Dichroic Glass Beads

Unlike Lampwork beads which are made by melting glass in a torch, fused glass is made by melting the glass within a kiln. Separate skills and techniques are needed and often a single piece will require multiple firings and steps in its completion. The beautiful beads and pendants that you will see in this section have been handcrafted by our resident Dichroic glass artisan, Sandra Welch.
