Fire Opal lampwork beads in a necklace where I learn how to do wire coiling. Lampwork beads and sterling silver.
The earrings represent fire to me because of the orange crystals, red seed beads and the volcano rivoli in the center.

I made the lava flow focal and button beads for this "Molten" necklace from polymer clay. They're combined with beads made from lava rock, and a cracked glass beaded drop.

Fire Agate is the focal stone. I tried to include all the colors of fire from dark orange to blue, including black lava stone, black shell, orange, yellow and red Mookite, Jasper, lampwork bead, Mexican painted Sunflower stone and Apatite to represent the blue flames.

This
bangle was made with 16 and 24 gauge non tarnish Inspire Wire and
accented with semi precious stone chips! The clasp is also handmade.

When I think of fire, I think of burnt orange and the artisan Dichroic glass beads wrapped on the Copper jumped out of my stash right away. I had to use them! The deep amber-honey marquise beads at the bottom sort of flicker like flames with their painted metallic edge. I had to go with Copper, given the earthy rustic nature of the theme.
