Glass Beadmaking

Glass Beadmaking is a specialized practice within the field of Glass Art that involves the creation of small, decorative or functional spherical forms through the shaping and melting of glass rods or tubes, typically using a torch or lampworking technique, distinguished from other glassforming methods by its scale, material manipulation, and historical continuity with both craft and artistic traditions.
