Making a Silver Ring in a Glass Bead
zhlédnutí 1,5KPřed měsícem
This is a step by step view of how I create a sterling silver ring (also called a rivet or cuff) inside a flamworked glass bead. You can see the inside of my studio where I work and all the tools I like to use for the process. This is the press I use www.nortelglass.com/nortel-bead-liner/

Watch me work in real time with no edits or fast forwards as I make 4 Mini Beads on one mandrel. This is a close up view over my shoulder as I flamework. I filmed this demonstration at my glass bench where I work every day so you can get a real feel from inside my studio.
