Artisan SRA Made Lampwork Glass Focal Bead with 23k gold. Free Shipping with USPS First Class Package.(R8)

This is one of my original handmade glass large hole focal beads. It is done in a raku black with 23k gold fire sealed to the glass. Each bead is cleaned and annealed. The cord is not included in the sale.

The bead measures 12mm x 12mm with a 5mm hole.

Creating beads started for me 20 years ago with a dream my wife had of me sitting in front of a torch creating a bead with a smile on my face. So she bought me a book on bead making. Within 2 weeks I was making my first bead. I am still smiling! Thanks for viewing, Michael
