three bracelets




I haven't posted bracelets in a while. Here are two glass ones and an enamel. The top glass one is made of beads which are primarily 'soft' glass twisted and shaped into flower-like forms and then covered with a thick layer of 'boro' glass. (Thanks Sara Conklin for the tutorial) The second is a mass produced 'God's eye' (really known as evil eye) design, and the photo above is of a vintage enameled bracelet. Enameling involves filling in a metal design with powdered color and putting it into a kiln to melt. The top and bottom bracelets look really nice together.
