What is lampwork? Please see articles related to this fine art. The internet abounds in them. I ONLY purchase and design with American artists,Israel,Australia,Germany and many more. Most are SRA certified. Self Respecting Artists. When you purchase a piece made with lampwork, you are supporting a host of very talented individuals that have invested much time and money in equipment to bring you these fantastic art/collector pieces.

 

Why is lampwork so expensive? For many reasons one being they are unique..even if the artists wanted and does on occasion make two sets of the "same" bead, they WILL differ somewhat. Two, equipment to make these little beauties is not cheap to run or purchase. Three, the glass rods,stringers they use is very specialized and made by hand and shipped from Italy,Germany etc. They are just down right beautiful! However, I will leave that up to you. ;) Look for many designs from SimplySuzz, using beautiful lampwork.

 

 What is?..On occasion you may have a question about a certain bead, like what is Aquamarine,Spinel, Apatite etc. I am working on selecting a sight/link (with their permission of coarse) to direct you too that will give complete as possible answers to your questions as I understand (believe me) that you want to know a little something about what your going to possibly purchase.

 

Can you make more than one of the same necklace/earrings/bracelet? On occasion I can. Like with Austrian crystals and pearls. They can be duplicated with no problems...*unless a color or shape has been discontinued that I am currently using in a design. However lampwork and earth stones will ALWAYS vary from project to project just by the sheer nature of them. Some exceptions are Black onyx which is very consistant in color and form that I use. I will post a picture of a strand of lampwork so you can see what I mean in the near future.

 

Do you make Bridal party jewelry? Yes! Please see the above on lampwork. I have many sets of lampwork but be advised,they will vary somewhat from each other. Say they are pink round beads with darker pink rose design in them,the artist produces close but not copies of beads per each other. Size is always so close as to not be noticable.

 

All jewelry in this store is handmade by me in my home studio. What you see is NOT a stock photo,but the actual piece that when purchased, will be sent to you in a prompt,professional manner.
