"In the flame, the glass melts easily and is soft to work with. It likes a neutral flame and if not careful, can scorch and burn easily.

The floral beads were made and assembled in the flame using brass tools and equipment. When pressed firmly between shape makers, the glass becomes thin and transparent, but thickens and becomes opaque in other parts. This gives a unique and interesting look to the bead.

The round decorative bead was made by pulling stringers from the rod, which remains solid and opaque in colour and looks. Scrollwork was easy to apply on the surface of the bead, and the stringer kept its firmness without weakening from residual heat.

In order to apply detail to the surface of the bead, this is where I scorched and burnt the glass, creating a dark smear which I could not reverse.

Once again, the spacer bead showed evidence of glass separation, giving the look that two types of glass were used- opaque and transparent in one.

This is an interesting effect but hard to detect in the bed while it is hot and molten, and can only be seen once the bead has cooled after annealing".
