On a fairly recent Pinterest jaunt, I explored color combinations, and this one caught my eye. A very deep lapis, bright minty green, sedated slate blue, blue-violet and a burst of bubblegum pink was called something else, but I call it Galactic Garden because, 1: alliteration, and 2: deep lapis blue. This particular lapis blue is particularly dark but the photos are not conveying that, likely due to the fact that it is encased and my camera is easily confused, or perhaps, shows things the human eye can't discern. Either way, I don't want you to be misled by what appears to be a light lapis here just to end up with a very dark lapis in your hand. We also have a perfectly minty green, a delightful blue-grey, a wonderfully blue-leaning violet and dots and bumps of bubblegum pink. Each Spike traps subtle shimmers of dichroic glass, ultra-magnified by deep encasement. Each one is different!
About the beads:
These lampwork beads are made by Sarah Moran with soda-lime glass (also known as soft glass), and are kiln annealed for strength and long life. I do my best to provide an accurate representation in the photos. If you are interested in buying but have questions, please contact me.
