Colors of the Deep
Artist: Leena Tucker (Folsom, CA)
Additional Top Pick, Glass
Several of this year's contest entries incorporated skillfully handmade glass beads and pendants. This piece uses a disk-and-loop bracelet form to show off handmade glass cabochons.
"... Each cabochon has different qualities - a slightly different shape, a small indentation, different colors and designs. But mostly it's fascinating to see the way the dichroic glass gives the impression of different depths, as if you're looking into a landscape. The smoothness of the cabochons is soothing to the touch." — Leena Tucker
Additional Top Picks are designs our editor especially liked despite the fact that they did not win a formal prize. These designs are often simple, practical and/or whimsical examples of how to use Rings & Things components well.
