Heart Bead ..Pink & Orange SOLD!
This gorgeous heart bead is part of a special collection Im making to celebrate life & love ...
With valentines day fast approaching what else could be more appropriate? :)
 
This heart is made from layers of gorgeous pink & orange glass, swirled with lashings of dichroic glass& thickly encased in crystal clear,  sculpted into a lovely heart.
 Now I usually don't sell beads like this one as it had a sharp bit on one of the holes where the bead realese started to come away while shaping.... i have completely ground it down( to smooth) which has left one side a little "scratched" & less shiny...
 
Once in a beaded piece it will be un- noticable & its such a beautiful bead that I couldn't just chuck into the reject pile!!
 
The 3rd picture shows the damage...
 
hence the reason Im offering it at the price of $10 !!!
 
This bead measures 35mm from top to tip 25mm side to side & approx 12mm thick.....
The hole runs horizontally through the top part of the heart & was created on a 3/32 mandrel.
 
Like all my beads it has been carfully annealed & cleaned.
 
Priced in Australian Dollars...
