Meadow Art / Cyanotype Porcelain Jewellery Set

Porcelain earrings and pendant set with cyanotype prints.

The main pieces in this set were hand-sculpted from Ming Po porcelain (not plastic or "cold porcelain") and fired in a high-temperature kiln.

The prints were applied to each porcelain piece using dried plants and the cyanotype technique. This is a handcrafted process that develops an image using a combination of chemical dye and sunlight. The invention of this method is attributed to John Frederick William Hershel, an astronomer and physicist, who introduced cyanotypes in the 1800s. The term "cyanotype" comes from the Greek - kuáneos, "dark blue" + τύπος - túpos, "mark, impression, type". Unlike traditional photography using silver salt, cyanotypes use a slow-reacting formulation containing iron salt, which produces the famous Prussian blue colour when exposed to near-ultraviolet and blue light.

The set includes drop earrings and a matching pendant on 18 inches chain finished with a cute ladybug charm at the clasp end. You can order the whole set or separate items (earrings or pendant). If purchased separately, the earrings can be ordered with 18k gold-plated findings upgrade (this option is only available for earrings order, as the gold-plated hooks have a slightly different tint and do not match the pendant chain).

Each item in my shop will be sent to you in individually designed handmade packaging with a description label. It is ready to be gifted to yourself or someone special (no pricing information is included in the packaging).

I do my best to make the photos as accurate as possible. However, depending on the light, the shades may appear slightly different from the original.
