With Ancient Modern, learn to create organic, sophisticated, and distinctly contemporary jewelry by artistically combining polymer clay and wire. Use a range of innovative techniques to design beads and jewelry components from polymer clay. Add wireworking elements, inspired clasps and ear wires, and more for a signature look. 16 one-of-a-kind projects, including necklaces, bracelets, and pins in Ronna's distinctive style. Each project features detailed instructions and step-by-step photography. Crafters and jewelry makers will be making gallery-style jewelry in no time! In addition to an extensive technique section on polymer clay, wireworking, and jewelry design, readers will also find a gallery of work for endless inspiration. Ancient Modern draws on artist Ronna Sarvas Weltman's fundamentals of jewelry design, what makes a piece "primitive," and shows how to achieve her organic effects and signature style, from color mixing to texture effects.
