These beads were made with classical inspiration. Most feature surface motifs and the focals are almost always urn shaped. This is my most favorite style of bead to make!

I just started making these because I wanted to brush up on my encasing techniques. . .I really love the way they turned out, but I'm so NOT proud of the pics. Photographing dichroic glass is no fun on a sunny Saturday!!

The Roman Bath House series has been my most favorite series to date. . . The minty copper green so beautifully accents the textured silver base glass and goldstone detail. The original set was inspired by pictures that my lovely mother in law sent to me upon her return home from Italy.

I have finished the original Roman Bath House series and am now working on series 2. This series will incorporate the use of gold instead of silver. This is the first set. I'm sure that the look will change a bit as I meander my way thought this series. . .

My little gallery has grown by leaps and bounds over the past few months. Please pardon my inability to be organized. . .I'm an artist. lol
This particular gallery features the work that I have been doing since we kicked off 2007'. Please pardon the mess, as soon as I have time I'll clean it up a bit.

I LOVE ANCIENT WORLD HISTORY so much that I used to study it just for fun. The idea of lost civilization intrigued me most. Of course there are no pictures of these presumed lost places, but my mind's eye can see them.
This series of beads is based on my idea of what lies undiscovered on the Mediterranean floor. That is why I choose iridescent blue and green glass. It provides an aquatic like backdrop for the motifs that would have likely graced the walls of a lost piece of architecture.
I imagine that this series will continue to grow because I truly have a passion for the concept.

Each bracelet has it's own character. Bali beads, semi precious stones, freshwater pearls and Argentium silver is used to accent the lampwork focals in each piece.
