At a show last weekend, several customers came by looking for a fused glass jeweler who had done the show in previous years. They were specifically requesting a type of earring that I have been unable to find in any of my wholesale catalogs. It is a hoop that wraps several times and the glass dangles from one of the hoops.
Is anyone familiar with this finding? Can you tell me where I can find it?
Thanks.

Alecia,
I don't understand " that wraps several times and the glass dangles from one of the hoops".
I assume the you are not talking about the french hook ear wires. Are you talking about wrapping like that one the wire tightly on top of the loop? I am assuming that you mean that the wire is not wrapped tightly since it is making multiple hoops.
I assume that you have looked in the Rio Grande cat. I have checked the Rings and Things cat and can't find them. I have access to an Eastern Findings cat that I can check on Wed if you would like for me to look.

i think i know what you mean. what i'm thinking of is one loop about the size of a nickle, and an interior one that is smaller, with the 2 connected at the top, and the piece of glass hanging inside. i dont buy that part, but ive seen it, so try rings n things, fire mtn gems, and rio grande. good luck in your quest.
