We use minor burner torches with a variety of glasses, including Effetre/Moretti from Murano, Italy, as well as Kugler and Double Helix. Our pieces are formed and shaped primarily with gravity and the aid of paddles and presses, and annealed overnight in a digitally-controlled kiln. We then carefully clean and inspect each bead. We photograph our beads in natural sunlight, weather permitting. Colors and intensity may slightly vary on different computer monitors. Colors can also vary when beads are seen under different types of artificial lighting. We are members of SRA, Self-Representing Artists, a group of glass artists dedicated to the art of lampworking, an ancient art form that balboaed in Italy in the 1300's and then spread throughout Europe, the Americas and the rest of the world.
