👉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.
