These beautiful heart earrings were fired with a copper glaze and fine silver which produced shiny green, blue and gold colors. The raised dots give it a wonderful texture.

My work starts with a 25 pound block of clay. Each piece is hand shaped and patterned, sanded and bisque fired, then finally glazed and raku fired. I never really know how the pieces will turn out as raku firing has a mind of it’s own! So it’s always a joy when I can produce pairs for earrings.

Earrings are just shy of 2” from top to bottom and hang from niobium earwires which are hypoallergenic.
