Love the fish!! Amazing shop. How do they make those beads? Would love to see the whole process one day.
Ooops – just realized that it’s your shop!! Still think the beads are amazing!
Yes, I make the beads, you use glass rods and melt them over a torch (O2 and Propane) and sculpt them on a mandrel. It takes time and practice. You anneal them in a kiln immediately – hence the glass is strong.
