Description
PRETTY IN PINK! A 1 1/4 X 1 1/8" fused glass dichroic pendant with dimensional fused heart. All colors of the spectrum are floating around on this dainty pink cabochon!

BONUS: Perfect for gift giving this pendant comes complete with an 18" matching organdy & cord choker as well as a 4" X 3" drawstring satin lined velvet gift bag!

I hand make each fused glass cabochon by first cutting and shaping the glass, stacking and kiln firing to proper temps for fusing and annealing.

The bail is glued to the cab with a glue designed for glass and metal. (It is possible the bail could come off under certain conditions but can be easily re-glued with proper cleaning and use of an appropriate glue.)

About DICHROIC GLASS:
'dichroic glass' - is a type of glass originally developed by Nasa. It is beautiful and mysterious: any angle you look at it, you will see a different color.

Dichroic "color" is not a pigment or a dye, It is the interference of wavelengths of light (color) passing through ultra thin layers of certain minerals that are vaporized and applied, usually onto glass, in a vacuum chamber. The result is a transparent yet highly reflective colored surface. The specific color is determined by the thickness of each layer of each mineral. "Dichroism" means a two color system: One color transmits through, while the complementary color reflects back off the surface. Dichroic trademark: Each color shifts over to a slightly different color as the viewing angle changes.
