Lampwork Beads: Sheer Imagination
Imagine it: an artist, thinking outside the box, experiments with melting a bit of glass in the heat of a cooking fire. Centuries later another artist successfully melts glass in the flame of an oil lamp using his own breath as a bellows. Imagine their excitement as they roll the glass into a small bead. Oh, the possibilities! For another several centuries, artists continued to use lamps for their heat source, producing unique beads, hence the name lampwork beads.
