Artisan Collaborations using Indigo Turtle Art Porcelain Cabochons
When asking about the availability of a particular design please reference the # at the end of the photo title, thank you!
Indigo Turtle Art introduced porcelain cabochons in 2015. To test the market for the cabochons and get feedback on the designs we held a contest and gave away about 20 porcelain cabochons to jewelry designers around the country. In exchange for the cabochon, we asked for a high-resolution photograph of the finished jewelry design which used our cabochon, permission to use the photo in our promotions, and feedback on the cab designs. We connected with talented designers in the fields of bead embroidery, wire wrapping, wire weaving and micro-macrame.
Here are designs which were created during the contest, as well as designs from artists who are continuing to use our cabochons in their work... we are thrilled with the results! The cabochons were favorably received and we continue to expand our cabochon line. James puts so much time & energy into his porcelain components that they are like our little children. We send them out into the world, it is so much fun to see them come back all dressed up.
Quantity discounts are available & wholesale inquiries are welcome. If you are a jewelry designer or bead shop owner who is looking for unique focal components we'd love to discuss your needs. If you are a jewelry class teacher and designer who sells kits, we'd love to create unique components for your classes or kits. You can work directly with the artist who is creating from raw materials; we have the ability to create custom shapes & color combinations as well as coordinating sets of components. Whether it is a focal cab & smaller accents for a bead embroidery project or a custom shaped cab with matching earring components for your wirework designs, let us help you turn your artistic vision into reality!
