~Jupiter~
This auction is for a set of 6 button beads & one LARGE Hollow focal bead that resemble the planet Jupiter. Jupiter is named after the king of the Roman Gods. Its the largest plant in the solar system measuring about 88,650 miles in diameter. It has 17 moons & is made completely of gases. The tempature is a BITTER -200F & the circular mass is a continual storm system that is so large it could contain more than 3 earths!!! Jupiters three rings move at speeds up to 400 mph! Neat huh:) heehee...I made the large hollow focal with all the details of the planet Jupiter:) Storm, rings and all!!
I created the hollow focal by using yellow ochre and then covering it with pure silver foil. I then added the details of the rings and storms with dark topaz, browns & ivory.  The buttons are made with awesome frit from Spiral Dance. 2 of the beads have a purplish irridecense...but you can only see it on the one bead, second to the last on the left, in the photo. The other is the second to the last on the right.
The hollow measures a WHOPPING 23x28mm & the buttons measure 19mm.
A  fabulous set of unique art glass beads that will make a wonderful bracelet and necklace set:)
