Some recent skull mibs (marble in boro)
and pendants I made.
I learned to make them from Bob Snodgrass and Cameron Tower.
They are made with clear borosilicate glass and pure silver fume.
For ever grateful.
Thanks for looking.

🎤MF DOOM millie!! Hit me on IG if you need some(EtherealGlass) This is borosilicate cane(33coe), made w Glasstronics green, Sangria, Ketchup, Sphinx, Twilight, Portland, Yellow Crayon, Jet Black, Star White, & a couple custom grey mixes

My first fillacello pendant (and one of my very first fillas ever), with a jester! Tbh, I still need to work on terminating the fillas which is why I added the jester. But I’m still super proud of myself! Thanks to Adam Reetz for all the help, so generous to share so much knowledge! And thank YOU for looking!

The marble acts like a magnifying glass—it scales up the little ghost as you spin it!🔎🫪

Didn't go amazing but will try again soon

I made some turtles repurposing old implosion pendants into their shells. I also made some Halloween themed turtles too! Very happy with them.

Hey everyone!

I started lampwork in july and due to life, the studip I was at is closing but I'm able to turn my garage into a studio and share with my instructor for the winter, and work towards buying my own kiln and torch.

The studio had tons of clear boro rods (Ive only done boro so far and thats fine with me), but now I'll need to start buying my own. My instructor used to get hers from mountain glass but they closed with Helene.

Anyone know who is good to get clear boro from, at a decent or 'cheap' price in the US? Ive so far been buying colors from asheville glass and will be visiting there soon, but wasn't sure if there are any other places with less prohibitive cost or shipping.

Thanks!

I'm getting into lampworking and I was wondering where can I get the best glass to learn on? I'm considering the quality of the glass, the cost per rod/pound, and availability. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Rising first and shining best

I've been obsessing about this color listed in https://www.nortelglass.com/product/rb-arctic-fireweed-116/

Word out there is that this is a rebranding of lunar glass. Im not so sure about that, but who knows... However, evidence (or lack of it) points to RB being a chinese manufacturer.

This is advertised as a clear color, not opal based like Lunar Amethist Red Opal.

So far there are two canadian resellers but the shipping costs make no sense.

It just launched yesterday I think, and it's free to play on your browser.

It's got some jank but some of it is relatively realistic too.

The photos attached are of my second ever lamp working attempt. I am using soft glass to make fish beads as a gift for family.

The first time I ever did a lamp working project was last week, when I made a single yellow bead. It came out just fine.

This week, I tried to make this fish bead, but the orange soft glass turned grey in some areas. Why might this be?

Do I need to hold it further away from the hottest part of the flame? I didn’t realize the glass could “burn” like this. If anyone has any advice, it would be greatly appreciated.

I’m trying to finish a few of these fish beads by Thanksgiving, but I can only get in the studio once or twice a week. I am completely new to soft glass and am just trying to teach myself and learn as I go! Thanks!
