A simple necklace with bold colors - this handmade ceramic copper fired donut was created by Kristie Roeder of Artisan Clay, http://www.artisanclay.blogspot.com. I admired them for months before I figured out the perfect way to showcase each donut without taking away from it's unique character.

A simple peyote-stitched bail attaches the donut to a beaded twisted herrigbone rope. The bail is made with Japanese cylinder beads in a mix of lovely metallic and jewel-toned colors that play off the soft, coppery color of the donut. The twisted herringbone rope is the perfect complement to the donut, and can be removed from the bail and worn by itself.

The donut measures approximately 40mm in diameter; the herringbone rope is 19" long, including the lovely textured copper toggle clasp.

I would love to make a piece of beaded artwork just for you - please contact me for information about custom made beaded jewelry.

These wonderful handmade ceramic donuts were created by Kristie Roeder of Artisan Clay, http://www.artisanclay.blogspot.com. I purchased several of them from her and enjoyed looking at them for several months before I figured out the best way to display them!
