Lampwork is the art of making glass beads over an open torch flame.

Colorful glass rods that have been tested for compatibility are melted onto a stainless steel rod called a mandrel and formed freehand using a variety of tools and a lot of imagination!

Good value

Hard to find

 Just plain fun

This kit includes everything you need to get started in bead making except protective eyewear and a cylinder of mapp gas which is available at your local hardware store.
