Kalera's got some nice sets up. It's the really good ones who get such clarity of colors.
Did you see what Dawn's went for?!

and, I should say, deservedly so. I can't afford that. I don't own any of Dawn's beads. I'm not saying I wouldn't like to.
As Kalera's beads go, go to Kalera's website on the days she posts them. - I'm not buying lampwork at the moment because I don't have a market for it, but I own a few of Kalera's sets, and they're wonderful. - If you're into symmetry, for the newer people around here: Kalera makes beads that are homogeneous in color, shape and size. It absolutely amazes me how the beads in the sets are - well, not the same, every lampwork bead is different - well, the same. They may look a bit different between them, but they aren't really when used in a piece of jewelry. Kalera's beads amaze me in a different way than Dawn's do. IMHO (or IMNSHO) Kalera's beads go in the same category as Swarovski crystals. You get what you look at in the pictures, and you could probably drop them on a concrete floor and they'd be OK. She does that every week. - Subscribe to her newsgroup if you want to get the announcements. I'm one of the people who might beat you to them if you don't.

Yes, I did briefly have a thought of owning Dawn's beads, and am so happy for her success.
Those Kalera auctions were just the ones she happened to have up at the moment, but still deliciously bright.
I think she still lists her beads on Mondays. At any rate she has a huge selection up at the moment; but I can't vouch for what will be there by this evening. I too have her beads and love them.
