Arranged below are the Costume Jewelry Creations listed by function or normal body placement. To assist your navigation, each category is further divided by construction and the main feature or composition. When sufficient materials are available, ShuMing has created ensembles of 2 or more items that match or complement each other when worn together.

Please note that most of the items are custom designed and are therefore "One-of-a-Kind" and are subject to prior sale. We attempt to maintain the website to keep track of changes in inventory, however, there are times when we are away ("Searching the "Orient For You!"), looking for new materials, and some items are out of stock. Should you purchase a specific item that is no longer available, ShuMing will select one or more items similar to your selection, and e-mail photographs for your approval prior to shipment. In the event that you choose not to complete the purchase for any reason prior to shipment, the purchase price will be cheerfully refunded. See Terms.

PMC Sculptures

Developed by a Japanese high tech company originaly for the computer industry, Precious Metal Clay (PMC) is a plastic material that can be molded into complex and beautiful shapes by the artist. Upon firing in a kiln, the PMC turns into a solid metallic object, faithfully reproducing the original sculpture in 0.998 fine silver or 22 caret gold. PMC clays shrink between 10-30% during firing, thus the artist must sculpt the work larger than the finished size, which permits additional attention to details. Certain types of PMC allow thin sheets of the clay to be folded into complex origami-like shapes that result in very unique creations.

Accessories

An assortment of gift bags in various styles and colors. A small collection of hand finished wooden decorative chests, gift boxes, and storage and display cases as availability permits.

Certification

At request of several of our collector clients, chinaknots now offers a Certification of Authenticity service for items that are genuine creations of the artist(s). Concurrent with the certification is the issuance of a unique serial number and registration in the the Certified Creation Database. Each certificate is personally signed by ShuMing. Items eligible for certification are indicated by the symbol Ç.

NOTE: If you wish to have your eligible items certified, it is most economical to purchase this service during the original purchase. Although certification is usually available for previously purchased eligible items, the cost is higher due to the higher administrative costs involved. .........CLICK HERE TO PURCHASE
