The beads are flameworked glass beads where the glass is recycled from bottles. The material holding everything together is the world’s first eco-friendly beading wire, Extreme Soft Flex Wire. I am using the gold wire, in heavy gauge.

This necklace is 24 inches long.

Terry Henry163 viewsThe lamp-work beads in this necklace are made entirely from recycled materials. There are 26 (green) handmade beads in this necklace all made from a (green) wine bottle "rescued" from the recycle bin. Green glass was melted and formed into canes. The silver used to enhance the glass was reclaimed from a silver recovery plant that processed film in the 70's. Floor sweepings were saved and given to me long ago. I rolled the glass gather into filings made from the silver droppings. I pulled silvered stringers and twists and applied them to the beads. I worked the glass in a reducing and striking environment to develop the patterns and colors in the beads. The necklace is strung on Medium Soft Flex Beading Wire.
