Her creations include neckpieces, cuff bracelets and strung handmade ceramic bead bracelets and necklaces. She has specialized in freeform peyote stitch cuff bracelets.

Mary also makes her own ceramic clay of the earth beads, pendants, and vessel pendants to be used in her strung necklaces and in her freeform peyote stitch creations. Her beads are both slip cast and hand built. Each bead is individually decorated with stampings, multiple stainings, firings and glazing often resulting in an ancient or primitive look. More recently she has begun to use impressions from wildflowers and plants that blossom in the summer in the pastures of Northern New York. Mary is a proud member of the Beads of Clay Yahoo Group (BOC). Mary may be contacted by e-mail mary@maryhardingjewelry.com or P.O. Box 148, Rensselaer Falls, NY 13680, (315) 344 7252. |
