Spotlight on ArtsyBeat Blog!

Spotlight on ArtsyBeat Blog!


I love finding nice things in my inbox! Today, I was contacted by the editor of the ArtsyBeat blog to let me know my "Dreams of Peace in Tibet" necklace had been featured in an article about "Charming Handcrafted Ceramic Jewelry".

This wonderful blog features artists of all mediums and has a lot of helpful information for artists such as tips for promoting and marketing your work.

Druid's Egg Ceramic Pendant


This "Druid's Egg" earthenware pendant is a collaborative effort between my husband, Grizzly Mountain Arts, and myself. I am so lucky to have a master carver with a studio right next to mine! Dave carved the original Druid's Egg, then made me a wonderful mold from that piece. This pendant, which has turquoise glazed spirals, hangs from a faux suede cord that can be tied to accommodate many necklines. You can easily remove the cord if you have a favorite chain you prefer to use.  This Druid's Egg is currently for sale in my Good Dirt Jewelry Etsy shop!

Spiral Hand Ceramic and Turquoise Necklace


I created this Spiral Hand pendant from earthenware clay. It has been glazed with a chili pepper red glaze. No two pieces ever come out of the kiln the same! The bead work consists of two old Tibetan yak bone beads that have been inlayed with turquoise and coral, mahogany obsidian, ostrich shell, carved bone beads, and turquoise. The clasp is copper and the overall length of this piece is 17". This piece can be found in my 1000markets.com shop.

The spiral is an ancient symbol reflecting the universal pattern of growth and evolution. The spiral pattern appears again and again in the natural world from the milky way galaxy to snail shells. The living spiral does not begin or end, it is an ongoing process of innocence, discovery, community, and the essence that connects all things

Celtic Happiness Ogham Ceramic Pendant

Made with love on Grizzly Mountain!

This "Happiness" Ogham is accented by a old Tibetan yak bone bead that has been inlayed with turquoise and coral. The Ogham writing on this pendant has been glazed with a dark brown glaze. I try to give an aged look to all of my pieces. If you would like to view addition photos of this piece, or see other examples of my work, please visit my Etsy shop!

New Additions to Our Shop!

Update! This piece sold on the first day! Many thanks, Diane!

Finally! All of our earthenware pendants are now located in our Good Dirt Jewelry Etsy shop! In addition to those that have been listed for a while, I have added some new pieces! Most of my new pieces are more organic in form and design.

The pendant that is featured in this post, is one of my favorite new designs that features a simple spiral. These are all done free form, so no two will be exactly alike. If you'd like to see a more detailed view, please click on the photo above.

Don't worry, there will be more Oghams in the future :)
