Beads by Artist

These lampwork beads are hand made by artists around the world, using a torch and glass rod which is fired and annealed in a kiln for strength, and smoothed for use in show leads.

Beads may be purchased for reserve use in leather products, they are listed at my cost, so they are not for individual sale.

	Anna Boling - Abstract and whimsical.
	Anu Luht - Mostly hearts, some abstract.
	Bobbie Wilhelm - Lacy leafy or floral filigree styles and Sugar Skulls (will also make to order). Never a disappointment!
	Champion Show Leads - Mostly metal crafts other than big name brands (Pandora, Gona, etc.), or those I find unique and some beads which I made or altered.
	Clare Scott - Mostly hearts, usually with some metallic or iridescence.
	Daniel Caracas - A lot of sea glass and small bead sets which are great to add to other sets, create a focal group with or set individually along a lead, with crystals.
	Debbie Deluca - Very lightweight and usually sparkly sets with many having a 925 silver dripped overlay
	Elena Avinskaya - Excellent dragon eye beads where most have an eye on both sides. Gorgeous abstract and a few floral also.
	Elena Solopova - One of the most advanced artistic glass sculptors I've seen. Everything from custom made dog look-alikes, to dragons, florals, butterflies, characters, you name it. She does make to order and has made most of these at my request, for specific looks I had envisioned, and which she nailed!
	Elena Volkova - Very lightweight and smaller three bead sets. Most with strings of 'bubbles', or Victorian filigree overlays. Excellent all together in a focal set or spread out in 3 small groupings.
	Emiel Neefjes - Beautiful lightweight and artistic beach scenes with colorful waters, sandy beaches, shells, urchins and barnacles all sculpted from glass in a realistic rendition of ocean scenery.
	Evgeniya Karpushina - Mostly animals, birds or amphibians in cartoonish styles or with whimsical décor. Lightweight and many with five bead sets, which are able to be used in full; depending on breed size.
	Gea Hines - Sets of three beads of medium size which are lightweight and round or oblong. Usually with a 925 silver dripped overlay, beautiful dichroic color shifts or sparkling silver insets. Most of these type glass beads do not photograph well but look so amazing in person. If you think you like one, ask to see it in a video so you can see what I mean.
	Heather Behrendt - There is actually only one bead type that I have of Heather's. I had her make these special for me, as they were the most beautiful, unique, authentic looking music scrolls I've ever seen done in glass. Truly works of art!
	Heather Davis - Beautiful little floral sets which look great set individually or all together. Switching up the side bead colors will often change the entire look.
	Irena Nikolaenkova - Abstract and often very shiny beautiful sets intended for medium to larger dogs.
	Johanna Stephenson - Abstract western, very lightweight and often much prettier than photos depict. Excellent for toy breeds as well as any other.
	Julie Burgard - Abstract western, shiny and matte, in various shapes and sizes.
	Katerina Sojkova - Mostly floral focals with solid sides. Some abstract as well. Beautiful flowers and polka dots.
	Katy Levi - Mostly abstract ocean themed sets for medium to large breeds. Some may be used for smaller/toy breeds but usually not an entire set.
	Ksenija Djurica - One of my favorite floral and abstract bead artist. Excellent weight and size sets for most all breeds. The price point is great and her beads span the color spectrum as well as styles. You can't go wrong with anything she makes.
	Laura Critchfield - Super nice floral sets which are stunning. Usually more than three beads in a set for medium to large breeds but can be broken down for smaller breeds use.
	Lorraine Fontaine - Mostly sparkly sets with 925 silver dripped overlay on silver sparkling bases. Very striking and all for larger dogs (6 strand leads or more).
	Mardi Brown - Mostly very intricately abstract swirls of translucent, opaque and dichroic glasses creating very depth filled sets. And a great artist of fruits or foods. Mardi does make to order as well.
	Masha Levitin - Abstract sets which she makes for jewelry and I purchase to break up into smaller show lead offerings. This usually makes them very affordable and gives us options for what to use together.
	Nadya Sokolova - Her little 'lady' bead sets are so artistic and beautiful reminding me of a fashion runway. She also has some abstract and butterfly sets which are darling.
	Nancy Gant - Mostly animals done in a cartoonish style. Really cute and at a great price point.
	Olga Boiko - Super artistic and beads of most anything imaginable. From fiesta mosaic style breeds, to florals, fruits, well recognized characters, breeds, gnomes, animals, you name it! Olga also does a lot of these as made to order for me and has made some very imaginative sets by request in the past.
	Olia Oleksiichuk - A very detailed glass artist with beads it's a treasure to own. I purchase and list at the cost price of the focal bead only. But always include side beads, if desired, to create a look or style you like.
	Stephanie Dieleman - Very artistic floral and abstract bead sets with intricate unique detail overlays. Many in a floral, lacy leaf, filigree method, which is a style not seen from many other glass artists.
	Tatiana Orlova - Considered the mother of all baby dragons, Tatiana does a wonderful job of capturing these creatures in both floral and abstract ways. Also offers some non-dragon sets which are captivating and beautiful. Another of my favorite artists.
	Victoria Runica - Beautiful artwork in florals, filigree, dichroic, dragonfly, butterfly, abstract or dragon eye designs. Most dragon eyes are on one side with a decorative back. Victoria makes gorgeous sets at good average prices, which some stunning leads have been come from.
