glass jewelry

The following pictures are samples of jewelry. The majority of my jewelry is designed by using melted marbles as the centerpiece, so due to the magic of mable melting, each piece is unique. Jewelry is constantly changing so new items will be added regularily.

NOTE: All jewelry is made with lead free metal and lead free solder.

Swanson jewelry is currently sold locally at 3 gift stores.

Please contact me directly if you would like to see samples to carry in your store or purchase for yourself.

stained glass

I prefer the copper foil technique, the method made popular by L.C. Tiffany at the turn of the century. It involves wrapping the pieces of glass with copper foil and soldering them together along the length of the seams. This method can be used as an alternative to lead to make the window art lighter for hanging. It is also much stronger than lead when soldered, needs no putty, is waterproof, and allows me to make intricately detailed projects where the bulky look and weight of lead would detract from the aesthetics of a delicate design.
