They’re the very best in contemporary glass beadmaking, 1000 dazzling and unique examples by an international array of artists. This color survey has it all: the beads come single or in multiples, in jewelry or sculptural pieces, flameworked and kilnformed; and their diversity and beauty are amazing. Julia Skop’s intriguing Secret Surprise showcases clear glass beads with millefiori slices at the ends. Bruce St. John crafts his beads out of diachroic glass, then fuses and coldworks them at the lapidary well after completion. Nebula Black Necklace, from Rene Roberts, features an organic-looking focal bead adorned with fine metal leaf, glass shards, and a subtle dot decoration. An artist’s comment and detail image accompany many of the photos. A Selection of the Crafters Choice Book Club.

  • 1000 Glass Beads

    This has to be the quintessential book on the best of the best of lampwork bead making. The artists showcased in this book come from all walks of life and at all levels in glass ability. I own two copies of the book, one is on my coffee table at home (the book, although softback, is that well constructed). The second copy of the book I took to a local printshop and had cut and re-bound in a spiral spine so I have it available in my glass studio. I use the amazing examples in the book as a template for my own work. For the price, this is one of the finest books any lampwork artist, or anyone who just loves lampwork beads, to own.
