My bead is a bead in the making.
Every bead begins with a basic core…which is then surface embellished to add color and texture….and finally,it is encased-to enhance the magic that has thus far been created and to keep the treasures within protected.
The clear glass spiral is the motion of the molten glass frozen eternally….and sybollically, also the bead’s aspiration to keep evolving…the glass,the bead and the artist can go as far as they choose to…
This aspiration is echoed in the Silver wire wrapped frame pendant that houses the bead and becomes a part of the necklace strung with Smokey Topaz,Swarovski bicones and Sterling silver nuggets.
The process of Metamorphosis for the bead continues even as it moves on now from being a glass bead to a finished piece of jewelry to being a piece of adornment that has been consciously chosen by a connoisseur to enhance how she/he would look and feel when it is worn…and it is all positively connotative.The journey continues as the piece then graduates from being a piece of jewelry to an heirloom being passed from one generation to the next and on….changing and redefining the life stage of the bead at each step.
