Immense Distance

I love the focal bead used in this loop pendant. It's a watery swirled luscious rainbow - a borosilicate glass beauty by Rose of Rosebeads-n-Bottles - like staring off to the horizon as far as the eye can see. It is surrounded by surrounded by swirled multi-colored borosilicate donut beads encased in clear for depth, and some faceted glass beads in light blue and rusty fuchsia hues, with little silver accents.
The loop is double-strung with strong nylon coated wire and hanging from a satin cord which closes with a lobster-claw clasp that has a teeny starfish charm accent.

Borosilicate glass is a special kind of glass which is actually more durable than normal glass - it is the same kind used in Pyrex and is less dense than ordinary glass and it also requires a much higher temperature to melt compared to ordinary silicate glass.
