Hello, my name is Tonya Perri. Welcome to my world of hand sculpted and painted porcelain clay jewelry.

I have been creating my jewelry for almost 30 years now. It’s hard to believe that a love for sculpture and abstract art in college would lead to one of the things I love doing the most, CREATING MY PORCELAIN JEWELRY!!!

I honestly can’t remember a time when I wasn’t creating something. As a young child I can remember always drawing, painting or finding things out in nature to put together. For a young child to find the perfect stone or piece of wood was like finding a treasure. Then when I was in high school, I started to have this love for sculpture, ceramics, painting and drawing, In college, I finally found my passion, a passion for contemporary modern abstract art.

I know all of these early influences led me to creating with porcelain clay. I love how it can be molded, shaped and painted on. I approach each piece as a little blank canvas to work on. In many ways, my jewelry creations are like little landscapes of nature. They can be colorful, funky, earthy, and abstract and yet they have a little polished sophisticated twist.

One of my greatest joys in creating my jewelry all these years has been to make something special and unique for someone else to love and cherish. When I get excited about pieces I am working on, I can’t wait to share them with others.  I thrive on making others happy, whether it’s through my creations, or to uplift their spirits through a funny joke, kind gesture, or a heartfelt talk. I feel that going to art and craft shows allows me to connect with people and give them that experience through my jewelry. There are always great conversations and I learn so much about people and what brings them joy.

 My mission is, and continues to be, to make creative, fun, happy wearable art that can help women express their own unique individuality. Something that brings them joy and makes them feel good when wearing it, like it’s their own personal piece of art.

I hope you have enjoyed looking through my website at all my wearable art pieces. I hope you found something unique and special for you, or a cherished friend or family member that speaks to your heart.

With Lov, Tonya
