Rusty Green Ceramic Earrings

These earrings feature some of my newest and first ever Ceramic beads. I am having a wonderful time experimenting with glaze and texture.
 Working with porcelain and making beads are not new to me. But making porcelain beads is. This will probably be a life long learning experience for me and I am ready for the challenge! 

There is so much to do and so much to learn. I cannot imagine this ever getting old. We'll see. 
 These beads have a leafy pattern imprint and "turquoise lagoon" glaze.

I really love how the colors look rusty. 
Like an old rusty green metal thing you'd see out in the woods.

  7. I love them! I love that you're working in porcelain now, can't wait to see what new things you make! These beads make me think of ancient Chinese pottery. And I LOVE your knotted earwires!
