UPDATED 12/14/06! I have fallen deeply in love with Light & Dark Silver Plum glass. Don't tell my husband! LOL I'll post my results here as I experiment further with this amazing glass. I know I'm late to the party here but then I often take up a new type of glass long after it's had a hayday. Oh well! Still fun!

Sick of mass-produced beads? I make top-quality glass beads by hand, one at a time. Discover the difference! My name is Amber Van Meter. I have created high-quality artisan (lampwork) beads for over nine (9) years now. I specialize in the use of powdered enamels and silver with glass. I also have over sixteen (16) years of experience in jewelry design and silver work. You may have seen my artisan beads on eBay, WetCanvas, BeadArtists.org, Torch Bugs or Lampwork Etc. My art is also listed on my website - Naosglass.com. My beads are handmade by me. 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 clean 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! :) Custom order are welcome! Kind regards, Amber www.naosglass.com
