Artwork Description:

Necklace and Earring Set. Individually hand-formed small clay beads. A hand formed clay pendant with a cedar branch impression on its surface. The earring pendants also have matching cedar branch impressions. Cedar has medicinal values and is considered to provide protection to the individual who carries it or utilizes it. This set is comprised of clay, copper and fresh water pearls. The clay beads and clay pendants were kiln fired and later taken outside and flash-fired in a bed of dry pine needles to produce the beautiful dark swirls of colors. Hand shined.
