Bead
work Magazine: October/November 2006It was a privilege to write a profile on one of my favorite glass artists,
Michael
Barley. It was an honor to pay tribute to this
glass artist extraordinaire who has influence my glasswork immensely.
In the same issue, Beadwork magazine featured
the electroformed leaves under their "Cool Stuff" column. Please note that I am
a major distributor to designers and bead stores who have a discerning eye for
quality. I have collaborated with the manufacturer to make these leaves
more widely available to artisans who demand the best in their materials.
Every leaf is hand selected by me personally and undergoes high quality
inspection standards. The leaves are perfect with NO flaws
and are the "First Quality" of each production batch. I
am the only distributor that selects from production. Only about
25% of each production batch is selected for my offerings. To date, I am
the ONLY distributor that takes the extra time to ensure the quality of
each leaf with careful inspection and matched earring pairs for selected
leaf styles. Yes I am strict but that ensures you will be thrilled with
your leaves! Other distributors carry different quality leaves. Not
all leaves are created equal. Seeing is believing. Wholesale pricing is available to volume orders. To
view the selection of leaves and the pricing structure, visit the catalog.
