I hand-form every piece of polymer clay jewelry with no use of commercial molds. All colors are original colors of polymer clay, there is no paint applied. I use several techniques including caning, engraving, weaving, layering, and many others for which I don’t have names. Beads, mostly hematite and freshwater pearl, are added to compliment clay work. Ear wires and wires are sterling silver; necklace is sterling silver, 19 strand stainless steel Beadalon, or rubber.
