I wanted to make a necklace that's colourful but completely effortless; something you could wear all day. No clasps, nothing fussy, just pop it over your head and go. The Shoreline Necklace is the answer! I make every lightweight hollow glass bead by hand by melting coloured rods in a torch. I shape every bead uniquely, then anneal them all in a digitally-controlled kiln.
 
Once the beads are cool I etch them for a soft matt finish, then thread them on quality Greek leather cord.
 
The Shoreline Necklace is 28 inches long.
