Green lampwork necklace with charms

Hey everyone,

this is a lampwork necklace I made some time ago. 
The charms a fixed with regulare clasps so if I wanted to I could remove them. 


I used different kinds of greens and ivory.
Because I hadn't had my hot head torch then, only worked with the torch my father had, some colors are reduced pretty heavy by the propane rich flame. You can see some of the beads shining silver.. well, it also looks nice but that wasn't on purpose.
With my hot head I now can control how much reduced the beads are going to be. With a two gas torch one can easily turn down the oxygen a bit, but with a one gas torch (as the hot head) I have to close the oxygen suction holes with an aluminium foil and watch out not to get burned by touching the hot head... it's hot! ;-)

Someday I will buy a two gas torch *dream* 😵
