How It's Made

Winnie begins each piece by hand shaping or cutting out shapes from thin sheets of rolled out porcelain clay. Thin knife and sponges are used to clean edges of all pieces.

Underglazes are then painted free-hand on the green wares' surface. Every item is then fired four times. Mothe of pearl and 22K gold luster are painted on pieces before the last two firings. Findings are then attached to finished pieces. Metal wires, gem stones and beads are sometimes added for decoration , and the findings are of excellent quality and made of hypo-allergenic stainless steel.
