One summer, while sitting under my large Pin Oak tree, I watched the sunlight play on a pool of water and I thought how that same light danced through my stained glass window. Pin Oak Art was born on that day, and I’m proud to introduce our exciting line of original, hand-crafted, glass bead jewelry.

Each piece is a product of love, color, light and nature. Whether it is Mother Nature at her best—or-worst—there is still beauty in her power. And, a few of my pieces show traces of the kid in all of us: the little rascal who dreamed of climbing the tree branch to the top of a house; the mischievous child who aimed a spitball at the blackboard; or even the adult dreamer who strolled through a midnight garden marveling at the moonlit flowers. These necklaces will bring out the playful dreamer in all of us.

I take pride in my work and stand by my craftsmanship. Each necklace is strung on multi-strand stainless steel beading wire and finished with crimp beads secured with a dab of jeweler’s glue. All beads are thoroughly annealed by soaking at 970 degrees and 860 degrees with a slow ramp down rate in-between. Beads are not removed from the kiln until they are at room temperature. Proper annealing will prevent your bead from cracking and give you a small treasure to pass down to your family for years to come.

Since all beads/necklaces are crafted by hand, each piece may vary in appearance but never in quality.

Beads are created at the time of the order. Please allow us time to create your glass jewel. This also enables us to make minor modifications to your specifications. If you are not satisfied with your order, please return it within 14 days for complete credit/refund in the original packaging.
