My name is Anna :)
My learned profession - road construction, typically technical profession that requires imagination and accuracy, but certainly not manual skills. I think it's family genes.My dad was a tailor and brother was a painter. My mother taught me knitting in the early years. Knitting, crocheting, sewing for many years filled my free time. Since I can remember I had creative aspirations. 11 years ago the disease (systemic lupus erythematosus) excluded me from work and I asked myself the question "what next will happen to my life." By chance I met on my way clay. I fell in love at first sight. I am self-taught, every new project I treated as a special challenge. Much has changed since the beginning of this fascination, but I still have a lot of curiosity and uncertainty before opening my oven. This is a magical passion that gives me a great satisfaction from creating new projects, calms, makes me feel joy in the creative world of imagination and huge volumes of color. I feel the bond that connects me with the materials that I use to implement my ideas. Me and my family are happy that working with clay is my therapy. This caused remission lasting from 8-eight years.
I live in the heart of beautiful place in Poland (Europe) - Mazury Lake District. This place inspires me, here I make jewelry and rest. In the summer, my studio changes place. I create next to the lake, near birds singing, surrounded by flora and fauna, in complete silence and wildness of nature. I love meadows and forests, I'm inspired by their colors and textures.
ETSY is a great place, motivating me to the continuous search. I believe that jewelry helps to express who you are, and feel beautiful and unique. I try to make great emotions, remind fondest memories to remember that it is worth to surround themselves with objects made by hand from natural materials by people with passion. I invite you to travel around my world of colors and textures.

Each ceramic element is first formed, smoothed and fired at 900C(1652F) degrees, then covered with glaze and then placed for the next time in an oven at a temperature ranging 1050C(1922F) or 1250C(2282F) degrees. Not for the first time I get the desired effect. It can happen that I put one element into the oven even 4 times.

In addition to ceramics for some time I'm absorbed by method of melting glass in a high temperature and tiffany technique, so wrapping the element by copper tape and covering the eco-friendly tin.
