Image doesn't do it justice, there more blue in it
Each Tom Boylan bead is unique
Self-taught, reclusive, Northern California artist Tom Boylan was one of the earliest American bead-makers. An avid gardener and astrologer, his beads seem infused with both nature and the cosmos. They appeal equally to men and women, and were among the most popular we carried at Beadazzled.
Tom uses borosilcate tubing as the base for his beads, adding dots and stripes. Then temporarily closing off one end, he blows into the tube to achieve the desired size and shape. As a final touch he gives the ends a twist.
