A set of 6 lampwork cabochons measuring 20-21mm perfect for use in a variety of ways including seed beading, bead embroidery and silversmithing.
Rainbow graphic designs with a striking black background. A sister set to Night Skies, its always fun to see the colors come alive in the glass. A neon effect with strong colors on all cabochons, this set also catches outlet your eye and you see new colors each time you look. Color in the Dark.
The cabochons are unique with each torch session. The colors form based on the heat applied, time in the flame, and the specific glass used. I can use the same glass, but will never be able to reproduce the exact cab set as shown.
Size reference -
There is a quarter in the pictures to show size reference. I put the cab on the coin, so it might not be obvious at first - in the pic on the right you can see the coin peeking out from under the cab. Most cabs are slightly smaller than a quarter (21mm).
If you are a seed beader, you might enjoy creating bezels around these cabs to create a bracelet or multiple pendants.
I took the online class from Karen Long Designs called “This N That” and it taught me how to bead around the cabs using seed beads/delicas. I've made many bracelets and pendants after taking the class and highly recommend it. You can find the online class here:

I hand make all of my cabochons in my own studio using an oxy/propane torch. I use glass from the US, Italy, Czech Republic and Germany. The cabs have been annealed in a digitally controlled kiln for strength and the sets are curated to match in a pleasing way.
