Where a dancer's hands bring clay to life
The jewelry on this page combines three elements from the earth: clay, semi-precious stones, and gold (or in this case, gold plating). This affordable costume jewelry is designed for the wearer to honor the dances of Nature in her most enchanting forms. It conveys a reverence for the natural world as expressed in hummingbirds, leaves, and flowers. And it imparts the inner peace of spirit in the contemplative "meditation" necklaces.
These pieces of jewelry are delightful gifts for nature lovers who enjoy sharing their passion, because each necklace tells a slightly different story.
All ceramic pendants are handmade and hand-painted. They are coated with a clear, shiny glaze and refired for durability. These are all one-of-a-kind pieces.
