Chaing Mai Bead

Chaing Mai is renowned for its ancient temples surrounded by beautiful nature.

We wanted to capture the rich amber colours of the city at night against the greenery of the jungle and mountains. This complex bead is made with a transparent core of dark amber glass. Dots of dark and light green glass are then placed around each side of the bead and melted slowly under an encasing of clear glass until 'leaves' are formed by the glass pulling away to each side.
