Silver Overlay Paste Fun!

A new technique for me, though it's been around for quite some time. The designs are "painted" onto the glass then the bead is fired to 1111 degrees. The silver adheres to the glass and voilà - a whole new dimension to the bead! :)

Contact Artist

My name is Amber Van Meter. I have created high-quality artisan (lampwork) beads for six years now. I also have over 13 years of experience in jewelry design and silver work.

My beads are made by me in my garage studio. They are thoroughly inspected for flaws or defects. I properly kiln-anneal them to reduce the possibility of breakage due to internal stress. The beads are thoroughly cleaned and ready for your use as soon as you receive them. Most importantly, all of this means my beads are not mass-produced and are of the highest quality I can achieve.

I’m always open to suggestions for new designs so please feel free to contact me via email any time! :)
