Clusters are small but time-consuming to make, as each bead must be individually wound and wired into the cluster by hand. There's a temptation to make big, bountiful clusters, but I take the weight of the finished piece into account and try to hold back.
I went on a cluster earring tear one day last week and made them out of agate pebbles, agate donuts, and orange mother of pearl.
