Handmade Beads


Some "handmade" beads using PMC (Precious Metal Clay). Formed first with cork clay by just squeezing the clay in my hand. When the cork clay was completely dry I covered the cork with PMC - squeezed again in my hand (that gave it all the crinkles and lines) and fired it in the kiln - the cork inside completely burns out. They were then polished in the tumbler. My daughter formed the smallest one.
