February Flashback - Double Helix Glassworks - The Glory of Silver Infused Colors! Part 2

Closing off this month of February Flashbacks with another post sharing some of how I use Double Helix glasses.

Each of these sets are from the past and are not currently available for sale.

On a base of CiM's African Grey opaque glass, fine silver foil was melted in.
Shards of Double Helix Terranova 2.1 silver infused glass was added and
struck to bring out the amazing hues of magenta, blue and green.
The silver microdroplets have a stunning golden sheen to complete each bead. 

 

 
This set of 5 encased round beads were created on a base of Double Helix silver glass, Ekho. This glass starts as a beige transparent, but when each bead core was wrapped in 99% fine silver wire and reduced to create the dramatic hues of blues, golds, greens, ambers and cream. Each result was then captured under a thick encasement of Effetre clear glass.

 

This set of 13 encased round beads were created on a base of rare Double Helix silver glass known as Psyche Light. Each bead core was wrapped in 99% fine silver wire and reduced to create the intense variations in color. Each result was then captured under a thick encasement of Double Helix's clear Aether glass. Aether when heated just right transforms silver to a golden glow!
Enjoy the mystical silver glass in this unique and one of a kind set!

 

 

Starting with a base of Double Helix' Clio silver infused glass, a ring of silvered
ivory stringer was added, reduced to bring the silver to the surface and
encased under a clear glass encasement to magnify the glow from inside effect.
With hues of amber, pink, purple and blue, these are truly unique for your glass designs. 

 

Double Helix Aurae streams glitter on a base of Effetre Purple Red to create an oriental
feel to these 12 round beads. Add some glitter to your winter jewelry designs.

 

 

I hope everyone has enjoyed this month's posts and I look forward to March blogs to explore the new CiM 2023 colors as well as a number of CiM Restocks that are currently being offered and available at Nortel.
