What a lovely colour, would you call that aqua or a sort of blue? The silver dots are brilliant.

The glass is antique clear - is a pale aqua colour and when etched, as in the spacers, looks similar to sea glass! The silver dots are melted fine silver wire... Very Happy

So lakelady, how are you etching your beads? I have a book (yes I can read!!) that describes sand blasting them in a small scale unit, but do you put yours in a tumbler?

I think that design may prove to be popular! The lady in the gallery was stroking it in a proprietry way and was reluctant to hand it back! The customer who I made it for was over the moon and wants more stuff,so all in all a success! Yay cheers
