Description
Ceramic jewellery is an ever-growing area of the ceramic world.
Although ceramic beads have been around for as long as pots have, the
idea of ceramic jewellery has been making a comeback in a much more
glamorous and professional form than ever before. This book shows how
ceramic can be combined with other materials such as silver, gold,
feathers, leather, textiles or stone to create some unique and
innovative pieces. The book looks at how to source or create your own
fittings and findings, the problems of design and the practicalities of
joining the various elements to create a successful piece. The book is
well illustrated both with practical images and beautiful photos of
finished work from an international range of artists.
