The handmade jewelry pieces Pavelka Design started out with were press-molded polyform clay, gilded, with drop beads. The qualities of polyform clay are lightweight & practically unbreakable, a far cry from porcelain. These make it a nice medium for large buttons, too.

Here are some of our handmade buttons along the same lines. They had an antique look rather like ancient seals. People had a hard time deciding on the finishing point first so I started designing the beginning point instead, the patterns in 1994.
