Hand Rolled Royal Necklace

This is a royal necklace made with cotton hand silk-screened paper rolled into beads. The accents of the necklace are cherry quartz diamond beads, and peacock pearls. This is definitely an eye catcher, and whoever wears it is very special. 

Detail of the focal bead. Hand rolled paper, sealed with resin. 

These beads are not water proof. They resist sweat, perfume and regular use, but they cannot be submerged in water. 

Ocean and Earth (Clay and pearl necklace)

Lately I have been combining media to create my jewelry. I loved this combination of 

peacock pearls and Atzompa hand made and oven baked clay beads. The hand made beads are beautiful, and crafter one by one by Atzompa artisans. I respect very much their work and whenever I can I visit Atzompa for pieces of clay. 

This is the view of the front of the necklace.

Volcano and Ocean Asymmetrical Necklace

Polymer Clay Pendant

I just got some inspiration out of a Joan Miró Painting. I made several of these. 

Hand Made Clay Beads and Pendant

I got inspired by the amazing job that Oaxacan artisans do with their clay. After visiting Oaxaca last month, I had absolutely to try to make something on my own. I tried with air-drying clay, because I do not have a kiln.  This is a very nice outcome I got compliments while wearing my brand new clay necklace.

Fabulous Chocolate Stick, Baroque and round Pearl and Agate Necklace

This is a statement necklace, I came up with the idea for this one over several days, and I got inspired by the fabulous pearls I found at the bead store here in San Diego, and the asymmetrical features on Art Decó buildings. This looks great against your skin.
