Wearable Art
Polymer clay jewelry and art by Jacqui Ertischek.

Each piece of my jewelry and artwork is created with polymer clay, as well as other mediums including sterling, brass and feathers.  I start with solid colored blocks of  clay and through a process of rolling, slicing and adding more colors,  I create intricate patterned clay rolls.  I then place slices of these rolls on another piece of clay and hand cut each design.  Finally, each piece is baked, signed and dated.

The findings used are the finest solid nickel pin backs and hypo- allergenic ear wires.

I truly love what I do and continually come up with new designs which seem to delight my customers (many of whom have started "Jacqui" collections, and wait for new designs to come out).  They feel as if they are wearing a "miniature piece of art," not just a pin or earrings.

My work can be seen in fine art galleries and museum shops throughout the United States.  Its whimsy, beauty and affordability appeal to a wide variety of people.
