Sundrop Jewelry
is a wearable symbol of the sun's power. As finding alternative energy sources becomes more urgent we seek to demonstrate the potential of harnessing the energy pouring onto the earth each day in the form of sunlight.
This unique glassworking technique was invented by artist Bretwood Higman when he was a teenager in Alaska, experimenting with a giant magnifying lens on the beach. Now Sundrop Jewelry is created by several artists capturing the sunlight that falls in their backyards.

Sundrop Jewelry showcases the amazing potential of solar energy.
We use a giant magnifying lens to focus sunlight and melt glass
creating unique, handcrafted droplet jewelry.
The 3000° F heat is so intense that it can melt not only glass but metal and even rock!
