In the first firing of my kiln in April, I had a few oblong vases I’d made that needed a little bead or pendant as a decoration. I decided to make a few pendants to go in the second firing to use for this purpose. On a whole they turned out very nice. Since I only need three for the oblong vases, I think I’ll make a couple necklaces out of the others. This one is my favorite – I like the speckled look.

They make great fillers in the kiln so I’m thinking I may make several more and some buttons for my next firing. The ones above are just bare B-Clay, but I think a nice Oribe would look great too.
