8.21.2019 - Cap This... cap that...

August 21, 2019 Jill Symons

Cap this - and that… ohhh and maybe we can stack them! ; ) right, Ronit?! The art of winding, shaping, and bending glass to allow it to unfold in unexpected ways...

It started years ago with what I often call “splats”, they were three lobed and flat… but using flat beads is often tricky in designing jewelry… I mean I’ve done it, but it’s not that easy. I had played with making a slumped flower - but found that the size variations bothered me. I’ve finally decided that this is much more - say it with me - wearable… it’s smaller - less scary-breakable than my early tries… and I’m loving that they can accommodate 1/2”D rounds!

I played with colors and then with etching and not etching… all in all - I hope you don’t tire of these too soon, as I’ve just begun to experiment!
