Rainer Schrade
"I have been working on my glass art in the form of jewelry for over 40 years. You can find my art throughout Germany at the largest and most renowned arts and crafts markets of the country.
If you bought a piece of mine and want a matching necklace, clasp, bracelet, ring, earrings or studs just send us a picture and i will make them. Remember that each piece is unique and therefore there may be differences."
