The handblown glass furnace beads used in these necklaces are made by Virginia Wilson Toccalino and Tony Toccalino in their glassblowing studio in Milton, ON. These Necklaces are signed by Virginia with her unique signature bead. The signature bead she makes has her initials assembled in glass which are made into a glass cane which was pulled down in size. A slice of the rod, also known as a murrini (now containing her initials, VWT) was taken off the end and picked up on the surface of the color matched flame worked bead, which she then strung on the bracelet just before the clasp. There are many colors or combinations of colors available other than what is shown here. Custom orders welcome, design your own color combinations and personalize your bracelet!
