Porcelain Beads Make a Statement

Chunky but light weight porcelain and silver necklace

I love jewelry that makes a statement! As I design my one-of-a-kind pieces, I keep wearability in mind as I personally do not like heavy jewelry.

Using porcelain beads gives that chunky look without the weight of heavier gemstones. Porcelain is a very strong clay which has been baked at extremely high temperatures to give it the glassy look.

I like to combine porcelain beads with different metals to create distinctive looks. These light weight artisan pieces are easy to wear with business, evening or casual attire.

My questions relate to photographing in nature vs. on a model or neutral background and pricing.

I love this group as it is so informative and supportive. Being new to the business, I have picked up such great information. Thank you all!
