This necklace was created using cut black glass. The glass was then layered and pieced together before being heated in a kiln to fully fuse the glass. I then apply an 18kt gold transfer which is permanently adhered onto the glass at 1280° in a 2nd kiln firing to achieve that shiny gold look. It was then shaped on a grinder and after that I drilled a hole into the top of the glass so that a pinch bail could be attached. Afterward, it was put in the kiln a third time to be fire polished in order to give it a final shine.

This necklace is approximately 3/4 inch X 1 1/4 inches and includes an 18 inch gold plated snake chain. It will ship in a lovely gift box with an organza ribbon.
