Beads for sale (ebay)

I'm glad you're here!

I have a burning desire to make lampwork glass beads, every spare moment.

I create these intricate lampwork beads in my home studio in Melbourne, Australia. Each bead is carefully cleaned and has been properly annealed in a digitally controlled kiln.

I hope a little of the joy I feel in the creation can pass on to those of you who see them.

Please refer to my Ebay auctions if you are interested in what I am currently selling.

I can be contacted via email.

Below are some beads I have made the month of March 2008. Some are currently listed on ebay, some are soon to be listed, some have been sold, some will be kept...

1. Owl Nouveau
This has to be one of my all time favorites. I love the patinae effect and the jewel-like eyes, it reminds me of the art nouveau period in it's colour sense.

2. Blossom - Sold
My first blossom bead and the start of a new breed of owl. The eyes are beautifully intense, love this little one.

3. Summer - sold
Warm drifting colour, hovering dust motes. Made from a wonderful frit on a base of silver pink with raku accents and aurora eyes.

4. Honey Blossom
A new technique for me that is extreme 3D. Each feather is 'imploded' within clear glass, often used for flowers but all I saw were owl feathers. I'm thinking that there will be a new member of the Owl Blossom family soon.

5. Ollie - sold
Organic and curvy with lots of silver. He's puffed his feathers out to guard against the cold.

6. Marilyn - sold
When I saw the beauty spot on her face I immediately though of Marilyn Monroe. A blend of extraordinary glasses form the details of this glamorous owl.

7. Stern Stan - sold
Silver Cinnamon struck to a wonderful range of toasty colours. Silvered ivory feathers and beautiful eyes.

8. Boo n Hoo - sold
What a great matched pair! I am so happy they turned out so close to each other.

9. Angela - sold
I started putting angel wings on the back of the owls... see next image. She also has a sweet angelic expression. Lots of raku details and swirly aurora eyes.

10. Angela - back view
To show the 'angel wings'.

11. Darkangel - sold
Her eyes are simply beautiful with lots of depth and matched with the colours in the raku details.

12. Pinky - sold
The colours are comparable in intesity but also complementary, so somehow it works (for me it does anyway!)

13, Shimmy Jim - sold
A transparent amethyst base with psyche frit gone wild on top. Iridescent colours and matching auroras in the eyes.

14. Chuck
The eyes are just wonderful. Little raku frit side wings and raku details.

15. Flitter - sold
has a silver based glass body which is a deep mysterious colour. Raku frit side wings and opal eyes.

16. Memphis - sold
Avocado marble body wrapped in silver and topaz dots for feathers. the dots turned multihued for an interesting effect. Cool opal eyes.

17. Tom
One of my alltime favorites. I don't know if I will ever be able to part with him. I love how the colours echo in the body and eyes even though they are completely different glasses.

18. McDreamy - sold
Michaelangelo is one of y favorite glasses because of it's range of blues and their intensity in the one glass. The eyes are focal points because of their paler golden hue.

19. Parliament - sold
It had to be done. The collective noun for a group of owls. I love these little guys they are such individuals.

20. Violetta
Wonderful deep intense violets, indigos and blues with some enhancing complementaries. Very happy - I don't know if I can part with her.

21. Marmaduke
I tried an experiment with getting a layer of pure silver behind the eyes which is that intense orange in the right hand eye. It's pretty :-) I don't like the back though, I don't know what possessed me to ruin it!

22. Cherie - sold
She has a cheeky bright expression. Cool organic effects in her body to give that camouflaged feather look.
