Glitter Rounds

On a base of CiM's Chateau Ltd Run, a rich transparent brown, Double Helix Aurae silver infused glass frit decorates each round bead. The glittering shine from these beads is amazing!


Golden Streams

This glittering set of 6 beads was created with a base of CiM's Zoe Ltd Run, a blue hued transparent glass on which hand drawn streams of silver infused glass, Double Helix Aurae, were added. Each bead was then reduced to bring out the glorious metallic bling!



Blue Gray Silvered Ivory  

Starting with a base of CiM's Nimbus Ltd Run, a dark, stormy blue-grey, each bead was dotted with handmade silvered ivory stringers to create this set of beads.


Clotho - Goddess Bead Set 

"Latin form of Greek Klotho, name of one of the three Fates (Moirae) of Greek mythology, meaning spinner"
