Mallory Hoffman

Heartfelt key pedant with nylon cord

I made this heart on a key using a special silver glass called Blue Chalcedony.  It struck the color as I manipulated the glass in the flame  I rolled the glass in frit (ground glass) and added my handmade murrini (flower like decorations).  I annealed the key pendant in my kiln so it should be good to wear for a long time.  The key pendant, with the bead, is about 2 inches in length.  You can use the nylon cord, which you can tie, to show off your new pendant or you can add your own chain or, maybe, a kumihimo cord.  I hope you enjoy your new pendant!

Value $30

I made this bead a few weeks ago and love it lots!  It's made with two different shades of silver-laden glass and then textured and encased, and finally, I added end caps.  It would make an incredible focal bead!  Size: 43 mm x 14 mm
