Terracotta Jewellery

Terracotta Jewellery
Lean type of porous clay sourced from the beds of tanks is used for jewelry. The clay is then dried in the sun, crushed and finally put in tubs of water. Once stirred well, it is filtered through sieve. The clay thus sieved is filtered and allowed to settle. The excess water from the tubs is decanted and the clay is dried and cut into shapes and sizes as desired. The whole process is hand made and once the articles are made they are coloured into beautiful shades of the ornaments
