Introduction

Love Charms are small sculptures that may be worn as jewelry, or placed on an altar. They come through me with magical powers. Many of them tell the story of a Mermaid and her Lover the Mer King. Enter the gallery to read more.

Love Charms are hand formed and carved one at a time from porcelain clay, and fired to a temperature in excess of 2300 degrees. Some of them are fired a second or third time as they are decorated with clear glaze and colored glass which gives a sensuous, jewel-like surface.
Love Charms must be touched to be fully appreciated.
