Jadeite Green Opalino Mini Glass Flowers. Small glass flower headpins (glass on wire) in a beautiful light green opalino glass. These are made with Italian glass rods and may have very tiny wisps of suet on the surface as this glass is very susceptible to any particals of dust or impurities in the air or in the rod.
If you would like an accent color as shown in photos with black, simply add a comment during checkout or send me a message.
Flower diameter range from 1/4" - 1/2" diameter depending on shape- see photos for reference.
👉 I make these individually on my torch by heating a color glass rod into a ball between the size of a PEA to peanut M&M on the end of 22-gauge stainless steel wire, then press, squeeze, mush, pinch and pull into the desired shape; they go directly into a temperature-controlled kiln to properly anneal and harden.
🎁 These are great for jewelry as well as miniature settings, wedding bouquet or window, shelf, curio or desk displays. They make a perfect gift to say: Thank you, I love you, Thinking of you, Sorry for your loss, or simply... Have a great day!
👉 Default wire is 22 guage stainless steel wire (good for tarnish resistance and low-level allergy reaction). If you need longer wire, one option is to wrap them with floral tape to a longer wire or skewer. Take care manipulating the wire next to the glass.
🏺Vase display: Time to have some fun "junkin' in search for the perfect display vase. Search for mini vases, candle holder, small liquor flutes, etc. I have a small glass bottle that works perfect. Fill with sand, paint, decorate with ribbon, etc.
👉 As with any hand crafted items, irregularities occur naturally as each batch of glass rods vary, as well as each flower which adds to the beauty and character.
😊 I do my best to represent the true size and colors. I photograph them on my studio workbench with LED lights mounted on my ceiling and use my Samsung tablet. I do not manipulate the photo except to crop or reduce the size. So far, the photos seem very true to the product colors, but may vary depending on your device. 😊
