Halloween Geisha 2008

Halloween Geisha 2008

Posted by TracyJerrellAkhtar on 10/19/2008
My third year of making special geisha for Halloween. 2008's theme is The Mummy. I created kimono to look like mummy wrappings, gave them hair inspired by Nefertiti and each one holds a handmade sterling ankh.
I started out making 3 prototypes until I found the design I wanted and went on to make 5 for this year. Since they are part of my limited edition holiday series, this specific design will never be repeated. Only these 5 will ever exist and each comes with her own signed collector card.

Miira is the Japanese word for mummy. This geisha is #1 of 5 and also the largest in group.

Number 2 of 5. Her kimono is a bit darker than the first one. I was looking at photos of real mummies online and noticed their wrappings were very dark.

#3 of 5, the tiniest of the group. Have you noticed anything different among the geisha yet?
3 of the 5 have earrings, including this one. ;)

Halloween Geisha #4 of 5. Personally, this one's my fav, I think she looks demure.

I began Lampwork late May of 2005. Something sparked inside of me when I began melting glass and I just took off from there. My mother showed me how to light the torch, melt the glass and wrap it on the mandrel. Other than that I'm self-taught from books and lots of PPP. Up until June 2008 all my work was created on a HotHead torch. Now I'm using a GTT Lynx and LOVE IT!
My work is available on my website, Tracybeads.com and also on Ebay under the id azcowboygirl.
