Product Description
A meaningful symbol or just striking jewellery to wear with your western inspired outfits..
Hand made ceramic incorporating UG Wash, clear glaze, ab, straw yellow and blue storm fired lustres; and 18K fired gold.
Not for the timid!!
The earrings are pierced studs and although fairly heavy they sit quite comfortably. The pin has the pendant attachment so that you can wear it as a necklace on your own gold chain or leather thong.
Purchased separately the Earrings are $18.00 and the Pendant would be $16.00 and the S&H would remain the same.
Please look closely at the pictures....after all "they" say a picture is worth a thousand words
Miigwetch for considering my offerings.
Inspiration/Story Behind This Product
Ceramics by dorothy louise
In the sixties I took a ceramic course, and was frustrated by the lack of individuality in the finished products. The instructor was an excellent artisan but lacked artistic imagination. So I bought my first kiln and took the teaching certification. I thank A.S. the first instructor for the bases in excellent workmanship and M.T. the teaching certification instructor for the technical knowledge that made the experimental results somewhat predictable.
In the eighties, I found a stash of fired lustres at a price that made experiments feasible and my love of lustre accents flourished.
I hope you will agree that my pieces are not only unique but beautiful and, in the case of First Nations, Mythical or Wiccan inspired pieces, meaningful.
These pieces are not mass produced and even the ones that have the same motif, have one of a kind treatments of each motif. They each have anywhere from 3 to 10 firings and each firing changes the depth, tone and intensity of the colors.

ceramic bique, glazes, underglazes, fired lustres, fired 24KT gold
