AC031 Planet Tatooine necklace
The Planet Tatooine bead is securely set on sterling silver wire, with sterling silver bead caps. It is supplied with a sterling silver chain, or can be ordered on its own to go on your own chain.
The lampwork beads are made, one by one, in my Christchurch, New Zealand, workspace at XCHC, a shared maker space. They are made by melting coloured glass in a gas/oxygen flame and manipulating the surface so they resemble the images of the planets in the movies.
Tatooine is a fictional desert planet that appears in the Star Wars space opera franchise. It is beige-coloured and is depicted as a remote, desolate world orbiting a pair of binary stars, and inhabited by human settlers and a variety of other life forms. The planet was first seen in the original 1977 film Star Wars, and has to date featured in a total of six Star Wars theatrical films.
