Where light becomes wearable art

I’ve always been drawn to light — not just the way it glows, but the way it finds a way through everything. Even glass. Even me.

Soleil Beads began as a whisper in the flame — a way to heal, to breathe, to turn pain into color. Somewhere between the heat and the heartbeat, I found a language my soul could finally speak. The torch became my teacher, the glass my mirror, and each bead a story of transformation told through fire.

I make art to remember that beauty can rise again, that broken things can become breathtaking when touched by light. Every bead I pull from the flame carries a piece of that reminder — that you, too, are made of color, energy, and resilience.

This isn’t just glasswork to me. It’s alchemy.

It’s energy made visible — joy frozen in amber, peace shimmering in aqua, forgiveness dancing through violet. Each bead is its own small prayer that you’ll feel something when you hold it — a spark, a shift, a softening.

Soleil Beads is my way of offering light back to the world. A space where art and healing meet. A celebration of every soul who dares to shine again after the fire.

So welcome — to the warmth, the color, the story.

Welcome to Soleil Beads.

Where light becomes wearable art.
