Description
This bead *started* to go very wrong... I was experimenting again with triton AND aurae, AND silvered Ivory... all on top of Hades.Hades is a very stiff black that supposedly allows silvered colours to work to their full potential.
HOWEVER... hades tends to web when in a hot flame, and it creeps up overtop of the colours you melted into it, swallowing any colour you'd like. STINK!
So i did a little quick glasswork, added another layer, and squished. Voila! The blue is Triton. There are a few mirror spots on this bead, but i can't capture them.

this is SO gorgeous. I love the understated sort of beauty it has... I can just imagine it on a silver chair, accompanying a little black dress ^^

I think you trapped some ghosts and spirits in there. I love the colors. Seriously adore them. This is one I really wish I could see in person.
Also I want to make special mention of your photo. This is a marvelous composition for lighting, backdrop, bokeh and focus. This photo shows off your beautiful creation as much as a photo can. Since I can't see the bead live, I am most thankful for your careful and meticulous photo work.
