Bead, Drop, Lace Effect LBF20-4314

This bead measures approximately 38 mm x 12 mm at it's widest point and was wound on a 1/16 mandrel. 

The “Lace” in “Lace Effect” refers to an effect created when using a combination of glass types which produce a specific reaction resulting in a “lacey” pattern on the surface of the bead.

I use 104 COE glass – Effetre (formerly Moretti), Lausha, Messy, and assorted silver reactives like TAG and Double Helix. I work on a Minor torch and use either my Arrow Springs A-18 kiln or my Toolbox kiln. All my beads are properly annealed in a digitally controlled kiln, and then cleaned thoroughly from bead release using specially designed reamers in my Foredom.
