Yuka Kawakita, "Dragonfly Dreams" Size: 1.11" Price: SOLD


Yuka is one of the top few most accomplished and skilled bead makers that I ever met in my travels to Japan. She is insanely talented, and published in many different bead and glass publications over the years. She works with the super soft Japanese satake glass, and typically adds a frosted finish to her work at the end. This dragonfly bead here is easily the most delicate and beautiful bead that I have ever sold. I love dragonflies, and so the only reason I am even selling it is because I have a similar one in the collection. Even so, it's still SO hard to let go of this one, because it just amazes me how beautiful it is. It has this soft, flowing feel to it. She makes the glass look like fluent brush strokes. I can't say enough about Yuka and her work, and this is an amazing opportunity to pick up one of her finest creations!
