?I make these individually on my torch by heating a color glass rod into a ball between the size of a PEA to peanut M&M on the end of 22-gauge stainless steel wire, then press, squeeze, mush, pinch and pull into the desired shape; they go directly into a temperature-controlled kiln to properly anneal and harden.

I make these individually on my Minor or Scorpion torch by heating a color glass rod into a ball on the end of 22-gauge stainless steel wire, then press or manipulate it into the desired shape. They go directly into my kiln to properly anneal (cool and hardened into a stable hard glass). Take care manipulating the wire next to the glass. Irregularities occur naturally as with all hand crafted items, which adds to the beauty and character.
?Default wire is 22 guage stainless steel wire.
