Glass Raspberries and Raspberry Jewelry — I picked raspberries as a child and even now I have a few canes in my yard, although the birds get all the fruit they produce. Thanks to our wonderful grocery stores I enjoy eating fresh raspberries almost daily, year-round. I think they are lovely to look at and to touch and would enjoy using them, along with apples and other fruit, as a beautiful display for my dining table. Alas, that can’t be done because the raspberries become moldy within hours at room temperature. It was my desire to have non-molding raspberries to enjoy as a display on my table that caused me, about ten years ago, to try making some in glass.
