Spiral Hand Symbol Ceramic Pendant


Along with the new Celtic Oghams, I have added a few more of my latest earthenware pendants to my Good Dirt Jewelry Etsy shop, including this Spiral Hand pendant.

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.

New Oghams Added


I finally got a few more Celtic Ogham pendants added to my Good Dirt Jewelry Etsy shop! Things have been a little crazy around here lately, so I haven't gotten as many pieces finished as I had hoped. Oh well, I'll just consider more to later job security :)

Round Water Earthenware Ceramic Pendant


Made with love on Grizzly Mountain!

I created this "Round Water" pendant from earthenware clay. It has been glazed with a dark "Blue Grotto" glaze. No two pieces ever come out of the kiln the same!

The 2" diameter pendant hangs on a faux suede cord that doesn't shed all over your clothes like real suede can. You can easily tie it to accommodate any neckline. The cord can easily be removed if you have your own favorite cord or chain.

All of the items in my Good Dirt Jewelry shop includes free shipping and a gift box--making this a great holiday gift!

Get 'Em While They're Hot!


A fresh batch of Old Irish Blessing Stones are fresh out of the kiln! Thanks to a wonderful customer, I sold most of the new ones I had recently added to my Good Dirt Jewelry Etsy shop.

Old Irish Blessing Stones


I have just added some new Old Irish Blessing Stones to our Good Dirt Jewelry Etsy shop! For all of you Ogham lovers--that's my next project!

We are officially on vacation! To celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary, Dave and I are headed to Reno and will be gone until late Thursday evening. All of our shops will remain open and we will have our laptop with us to answer any questions you may have. It will be business as usual except all items purchased during this time won't be shipped until Friday, September 12.

The Sacred Salmon Earthenware Pendant


To the Celts, the fish symbolized knowledge, wisdom, the gift of prophecy and inspiration.

The Salmon of Wisdom were keepers of all knowledge. Mythology tells us that this knowledge was attained by eating the nuts of the sacred hazel tree.

I created my "Sacred Salmon" from earthenware clay. It has been glazed with a dark chili pepper red glaze. Measuring about 1 3/4" in length by 1/2" wide, this pendant hangs from an 18" ball and chain necklace. This piece is currently for sale in my Good Dirt Jewelry Etsy shop.

Spiral Hand Earthenware Pendant

Made with love on Grizzly Mountain!

I created this Spiral Hand from earthenware clay. It has been glazed with a turquoise glaze to have an aged look.

No two pieces ever come out of the kiln the same! The pendant measures nearly 1 1/2" in length by 1" in width.
