Product description
Handmade Porcelain Letter Charms with Floral Detail and Hemp Cord beautifully backed onto recycled kraft card with heart cut out
These handmade beauties come on brown recycled kraft tags with a perfectly lovely heart lazer cut out.
Made with recycled porcelain- I recycle the clay myself.
Unfortunatly, the letter 'A' is currently out of stock. I won't be turning my kiln on to make some more until I can fill the kiln (electricity costs). Than you for supporting a small business- it's just me and my kiln. :)
Variations
My porcelain letters are each slightly different from the last and has been lovingly made through each of the making processes. Letters are finished with a clear, glossy glazed, showcasing the porcelains natural colour and decorated with floral ceramic decals on the front and back.
Although hardwearing please note that they are made from porcelain and if they are dropped or bashed around they may break.
Available in all 26 letters of the alphabet.

Made from
made from:
Firstly, I have made plaster moulds from children's fridge magnets in my little studio. I then pour porcelain slip into each of the moulds, once the clay has set I release them from the moulds, smooth the surface and insert a hole to thread. One dried out the letters are biscuit fired at 1060c and then glazed and fired again at 1250C. The letters are then fired a third time once I have cut out and applied floral decals onto the front and back of each letter- this can be very fiddly! This last firing is set at 720C.
The process is labour intensive, but I love it. Each letter is slightly different from the last, feels beautifully smooth and has a silk finish. These handmade charms are fragile and special- treat them with love. The letter charms are finished with 1mm thick brown organic hemp cord.
