Looking for an everyday piece that is anything but ordinary? The Recycled Glass Pendant Necklace has a simple gold filled chain that allows the recycled glass bead to be the star!

I love recycled glass beads and have had the opportunity to see them made. They gather unwanted glass and crush it. They then put it in a clay mold and put it in a kiln for 10-15 minutes. They pull it out and make holes. Finally, they hand polish it using only sand and water. The result is a beautiful one of a kind bead! 

Dimension: 20 inches, glass bead .5 inches
