Dragonflies heart-shaped ceramic and sterling silver drop earrings in turquoise and blue

These pretty heart shaped earrings have dragonflies stamped into the wet clay, and a wash of turquoise and a border of blue over the background.

As with all my jewellery they are made and decorated entirely by hand.

After forming the drops from fine white clay, I imprint my design. When dry, I sand the back and sides and round off any corners to ensure they are super smooth. They then have their first firing. Next I paint them using under-glazes and apply a transparent glaze before firing again to earthenware.

Being glazed all over they are smooth against the skin whilst retaining the texture of the imprinted design. The result is a pleasantly tactile item.
