Lampwork beads are some of my favorites. This one has an ocean theme that reminds me of my childhood home in New Caledonia. author signature

This bracelet features a stunning Grace Lampwork bead that looks like an Ocean Treasure. Layers of shining chain and swirling TierraCast links help to showcase this fantastic bead. Cynthia used chandeliers in a unique way to complete her multi-strand design. You can see more ways to use chandeliers in this Artbeads Cafe episode.

Cut a length of silver-plated flat oval cable chain approximately five links long. Attach half of the TierraCast antique pewter classic toggle set to one end using a sterling silver 4.60mm open jump ring. Attach the other end to the tapered end of the TierraCast antique silver empress link using a 4.60mm jump ring. Repeat this step for the other end of the bracelet.

Cut three lengths of chain approximately eight links long. Attach one to each loop on the other side of your silver empress link from the previous step using a 4.60mm jump ring for each. Attach the end of each one to each loop on a new empress link using a 4.60mm jump ring for each. Repeat this step for the other side of the bracelet.

Slide a Grace Lampwork cool teal ocean mini kalera bead onto a 2-inch 22 gauge sterling silver eye pin. Make a simple loop at the end of the bead. Attach one end of your beaded link to the end chandelier of one bracelet piece using a 4.60mm jump ring.
