my technique

The technique
My beads are created in an old Venetian technique called "millefiori", which means "a thousand flowers". To meet the power of nature within the meaning of millefiori, I unite the material of polymer clay with semi precious stones, sweet water pearls and sterling silver. Coming from the jewelry trade, I string the necklaces on silk strings and place a knot between every bead. If a string should ever break, you will not loose any beads.
