Kim Miles, of Taos, New Mexico, was kind enough to share photos of some of her new lampwork beads. Beadmakers should find loads of inspiration in this gallery and everyone will be awed by Kim's talent at the torch.
I don't know exactly how Kim describes the lampwork bead on this page, but I think it resembles a kaleidoscope. We're viewing the side of the bead, but look closely around its edges and you'll see five purple to lavender to blue flowers with amazing depth peering out from its outer edges.
