The Glass Raspberry Bracelet you see here features one of my handmade glass ripe raspberries paired with a light or dark green glass leaf. Both charms are suspended on Sterling Silver figure-eight chain. These raspberry beads are hand-formed one cell at a time in the flame of a torch from colored glass. No two glass raspberries are ever exactly alike. Like real raspberries, each of my glass raspberries has a translucent quality with a soft surface sheen, and every cell (drupelet) has a slight vertical indentation. The glass raspberry bead used in this bracelet is mostly solid inside to make it stronger.
The standard length for the figure-eight chain you see above is 8 inches and it is finished with a lobster clasp. You may wear it at any length you please by clipping the lobster into the link of your choice. The free end of the chain is finished with a small matching glass leaf. Different lengths and clasp styles are available by special order. Like all of my jewelry, this design is available in both Sterling Silver and 14/20 Gold-Filled. You can see matching raspberry jewelry by viewing the Raspberries Page of this site.
Raspberry jewelry can also be custom made with high-karat gold or platinum findings and accented with Swarovski Crystal or gemstone beads. Some examples can be viewed on the Custom Jewelry Page.
