About SWCreations | Lampwork Jewelry, Beads & Frit by Stephanie White
SWCreations is a U.S.-based lampwork jewelry and glass color studio founded by Stephanie A. White, a glass artist with over 26 years of experience and more than a decade in lampworking and silver-reactive glass.
What began in 1999 as handcrafted beaded jewelry has grown into a studio focused on wearable art and the glass behind it. Alongside her original lampwork beads, Stephanie draws from a curated bead collection built over more than 20 years to create distinctive anklets, earrings, and other jewelry designs that combine handmade glass with rare and beautiful materials.
Today, SWCreations creates:
- Artisan jewelry, including anklets and earrings
- Handmade lampwork beads for collectors and designers
- Hand-blended frit mixes made from premium Reichenbach and Gaffer glass
Stephanie develops her jewelry, lampwork beads, and frit blends through controlled testing of base glass, silver-reactive colors, clear layering, and metallic inclusions, allowing her to intentionally dial everything from soft, luminous pastels to deep, jewel-like iridescence. The same color-driven approach used in her jewelry informs the development of every SWCreations frit blend. Learn how SWCreations frit blend creation began.
Every design begins with the materials themselves. I let the colors, textures, and sparkle of each bead guide the creative process, allowing every piece to develop its own unique personality.
- Stephanie White
Every piece of jewelry, bead, and blend is made and tested in the USA; never mass-produced. Many designs are created in small experimental runs, so no two are ever exactly alike.
SWCreations has earned hundreds of five-star reviews from collectors and glass artists through years of selling on Etsy and directly through this site.
