This is a lovely set of beads that really resemble stone. This frit blend was surprising with all the reactions it had with different base glass colors. I was surprised the gold aventurine still had sparkle that makes these beads extra special. This set was made with a custom blend of Reichenbach and Gaffer frit.

This mix has mostly lighter colors of glass, but also has Reichenbach Multicolor frit which is likely one reason for all the fun reactions. This was used over light gray, black, ivory, and willow green.

I also used this over a dark brown that is a garage color from Double Helix. I never had luck getting any color out of it and ended up using it when I want brown beads.

This this outcome made me incredibly happy! The diversity in the lampwork beads is truly fascinating. Each bead having its own unique appearance adds a special charm, and the organic look is definitely a wonderful bonus. Each bead turned out with its own character and style. Which one do you like the best?
