The Ice Cube necklace is a bold design for the relaxed woman. Cathy makes every lightweight hollow glass bead by hand by melting coloured rods in a torch. She shapes each bead uniquely, then anneals them in a digitally controlled kiln. Once the beads are cool, she etches them for a soft matte finish, then threads them onto a sturdy Greek leather cord.
*Please note, each glass bead is uniquely shaped, and may not appear exactly as pictured.

She learned glass-beadmaking from Joanne Andrighetti over a period of three years, and is an active member of Terminal City Glass Co-op.
Her work is inspired by a combination of location, aesthetic, and practicality, and is designed to be worn every day by women of the west coast.
