Their beads are irridescent in a selection of colors and the molten glass is wrapped around a mandrel to produce the beads. I found them at the 'Best Bead Show' in Tucson about five years ago. I cannot locate a website for them, nor a business phone listing in Wisconsin or Minnesota.
The phone number provided by the one person who answered my question has been disconnected.
Hi just checked the Tucson show site and no Zephyr this year. There is a show coming to Milwaukee in June and they are not on it either looks like out of business sorry! I would send a letter to address with return signature to see if it comes back or not!

I found this from Google, not sure if it is the same company or not:
Zephyr Glass Works
W6390 County Road FF
Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin 53020-1829
If you scroll down to the bottom of the page on the link below, it is the last listing. It may not be current, though.
