Each hand blown glass pendant is individually lampworked and photographed, so once it sells, IT'S GONE FOREVER, making room for the next similar but distinct piece with its own special color tones. Due to slight variances in glass batches and oxygen-propane ratios, every new piece may have its own unique color tones. Grab your favorite before it's gone! What you see AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE IS THE PENDANT you receive! After you purchase, I take fresh new pictures of the next available pendant.
Dive into the depths of the ocean with my Mermaid's Tears pendant! This gorgeous hand-blown teardrop pendant is made with only the highest quality borosilicate glass and features a mesmerizing Gilson opal polished nugget that shimmers with blue, green, yellow, and even a hint of red within the opal encased in glass.
I carefully hand blow each pendant by melting the glass tubing with the Gilson opal inside within a bubble at the end. I then condense the bubble to a solid form into the perfect teardrop shape. This must be done slowly to completely encase the Gilson opal within the glass to create a stunning, one-of-a-kind piece that's truly unique.
The boro pendant measures 1" x .5" but with the bail the whole pendant dangles 1.5".

I recommend gently polishing the sterling silver using a treated silver polishing cloth. There are many excellent brands available, and they work very well to remove tarnish. I include a silver polishing cloth with every purchase for your convenience. I do not recommend liquid dipping solutions, as they can cause the silver to tarnish more quickly over time and often require frequent re-polishing once used.
If an item is returned without the specially discounted-priced leather cord, you will be charged the full price of $15-$24 for the leather cord. I do offer handmade leather cords for sale in my store. However, when purchasing a pendant, I offer a very special discounted price, as I believe my work looks best with the leather cord.
Custom Orders Welcome
I’m happy to offer custom orders when they fit my signature style, such as creating a piece in a different color palette or slightly different shape or size. I do not copy or recreate other artists’ designs. If you’re looking for a specific style created by another artist, I recommend reaching out to them directly for a custom request.
Wholesale pricing is available on a sliding scale for qualifying orders. I also offer a separate product line designed specifically for museum gift shops and similar venues. Wholesale pricing begins with a minimum purchase of 50 items. Please feel free to contact me for details and availability.
I am the sole artist creating every piece you see in my Etsy shop. Each item is individually made by me using a GTT Sidewinder torch and a variety of high-quality borosilicate glass. All work is carefully kiln-annealed overnight in a digitally controlled kiln for durability. I also photograph every finished piece individually, so the item shown is the exact piece you will receive.
