Glass - LAJewelrydesigns

    

 

Lea Avroch from New York is a proud member of SRA (Self Representing Artists).” I attest to the fact that each and every one of my lampwork beads is handmade by me, Lea Avroch, in my New York studio. They are each immediately annealed in a digitally controlled kiln to ensure strength and longevity.”

Glass and Lampwork

Anyone who knows my jewellery will know that I just adore using glass and lampwork. Man there is some amazing stuff out there. Of course there is also a lot of pretty cheap stuff as well, but the quality is very different and this is reflected in the price. Once you go upmarket a little you find the quality and artistry increases until you arrive at the true artists. The next few posts are to show some of the truly stunning things that can be done with glass. Very kindly the artisans involved have allowed me to use their photos.
