What should I know about handcrafted kiln-fired glass?
Kiln-fired glass is beautiful and surprisingly sturdy, and colour its most striking feature. Transparent and translucent glass transmits light, whereas translucent and opaque glass reflects light. Often, glass of different types and colours is combined, creating unique pieces that change their look depending on the surrounding light conditions.
When photographing products, special care is taken to represent colours as accurately as possible. However, due to variations in computer and device screens, colours may appear slightly different than in person.
Are the pieces really one-of-a-kind?
Yes, the collections are small-scale / limited editions of one-of-a-kind pieces. The fact that each piece is unique (unique, like you!) is really important to the artist. Due to the handmade nature, the materials used and the multi-step process, no two pieces will be exactly the same.
How do I care for kiln-fired glass?
The color of your glass will never fade. Here are a few tips on how to keep it looking shiny and new:
Jewellery: Remove jewellery before bathing or taking a shower, and store it in a dry place. Wipe the glass parts with a clean soft cloth. Findings can be polished with a special cleaning cloth.
What other materials are used in your jewellery pieces?
Stud earring posts, hooks or hoops are either sterling silver or hypo-allergenic surgical grade stainless steel. Please see item description for details.
Pendant bails are sterling silver coated and have a clear hypo-allergenic finish which protects the silver plating from wear and oxidation, it will not tarnish if properly cared for.
