Item Description
Lampwork beads are incredible, wearable beauty in glass!
Enjoy a 2 hour introduction to the art of making lampwork beads from master glass artist Scott Varrell of Glastonbury Glassworks in his Glastonbury studio.
Lampwork beads are type of bead made from glass. To make these, lampworkers melt narrow rods of glass with the flame of a torch.
Lampworking is a skill that takes a great deal of practice and patience. A lampwork bead artist understands the glass and the torch, and must learn how much heat it takes for glass to flow, how much heat can be applied to a bead that's already shaped before it becomes molten again and loses shape, when to add decorative elements and how different colors of glass interact with each other.
