Copper Mesh

I made some HUGE abstract focal beads with copper mesh deeply in bedded in them. Let me know what you think. These guys are big and took a LONG time to create. The copper deeply encased in the clear creates a kind of "window" that really gives the beads depth. I love the contrast of the metal and the glass, and they were really fun to make! (but really HOT sitting at the torch for that long). Would love to hear your input!! Hope your having a great day!
