Karen's jewelry designs have taken a new direction! Her jewelry is now created using different colors of porcelain clay. The colored clays are layered and manipulated into designs, then sliced and rolled to form beads. The beads are sanded down, and fired in a kiln. The fired porcelain is very hard and durable – as hard a quartz stones! The beads are tumbled and polished -- not glazed! The finished beads are combined with sterling silver to create the jewelry.
