Story Behind the Art
The crafting process is very detailed and time consuming from start to finish. Artisans first make the clay beads from scratch. The clay is hand-rolled to form the bead that is delicately pierced to form the beading hole, before firing in the kiln. The beads are then hand-painted and glazed before the final firing. The one-of-a-kind beads vary in shape and size to create wearable art. The colors have a saturated opaque feel that provides just the right color. Â
