These lovely glass beads are made by American glass artists. All are slightly different (if not completely unique) and available in only limited quantities. Most are what are called "lamp worked," meaning that the beads are hand made in front of a torch and then annealed in an oven. Others are made out of fused glass, in which glass shards are cut and then put in an oven and melted together.
