HISTORICAL LAMPWORKED GLASS BEADS

• An introductory paper on Lampworked Beads through history and basic construction techniques. This paper was written as a handout for demonstrations of lampworking at SCA events.

• Documentation for a Viking style strand of beads made to wear to SCA events.

• Documentation for Bead Timeline created for the Rowan Festival Laurel Prize Tourney in 2006

Here are some images of me making beads at an SCA event. (Please note, I only took my safety glasses off momentarily for the photograph !)

Here are some photographs of the first recreations of the Frojel beads that I made in 2004.
