A delicate necklace with a single frosted glass link which passes through five narrow beads, also made from clear glass.
Measurements
Each bead measures approximately 14mm across the centre and is 3mm wide. The link measures 33mm by 19mm. Together the link and beads are 39mm long.
The link is finished with a 45cm (18 inch) sterling silver trace chain. The chain closes with a bolt ring clasp which fastens through a jump ring.
How is this necklace made?
Creating this piece starts with making the beads. Once they’ve been annealed they’re cleaned. Then the link is created and the beads put in place before the link is closed. The piece is then annealed again before being tumble polished for several hours to give a frosted finish like sea glass. Finally the link is cleaned, polished and put onto a chain.
Each link and bead is made individually in our Yorkshire studio. The beads are created freehand rather than using a mould making every one unique. The beads can move freely round the link making it a lovely thing to play with as well as to wear.
What is the necklace made from?
The glass link and bead are both made from clear borosilicate glass.

Care For Your Jewellery
The best way to care for silver is to keep it in airtight packaging such as the tin it comes in when it’s not being worn. If it does tarnish (which is completely normal) it can be cleaned with a silver polishing cloth. Glass can be cleaned with soap and water and polished with a soft cloth.
