Weekend Glasswork

Spent some time creating and firing some dichroic glass pendants and earrings. All because a client asked for a pair of earrings to match her pendant. Easy, yes?
Not. she this material gets through the high heat process in the kiln it can change dramatically so it is usually a surprise. So its an experiment . I have a beehive kiln just big enough for a few small pieces.
Dichroic glass is to the best of my knowledge a material developed by NASA and spray on face shield due to its resistance to heat. They called it chameleon glass due to its reflective quality.
If you are interested in any of these pieces let me know. Reasonable prices and always an accent to your wardrobe.
