Jewelry
Body adornment is one of the oldest
art forms and throughout history, people all over the world have decorated
their bodies in one way or another. - Beads made from a variety of
materials were one of the simplest forms of jewelry, and were also used as
currency, to confer status and to ward off bad spirits. Ceramic Jewelry
inspires anyone wishing to explore jewelry and body adornment using clay
with or without other materials. By developing new skills with different
materials it may be possible to further develop your work and broaden its
scope. This book covers: designing with regard to aesthetics and function,
decorative surface techniques, forming and construction, use of color and
kilns & firing. It also includes basic metal working techniques and
the use of jewelry findings (chains, jump rings, pin backs, etc.) to
complete your pieces. In addition, a gallery of contemporary works will
inspire both the beginner and experienced ceramist. (Joy Bosworth,
