Ceramics and jewelry are among the fields of art that has developed along with human history. Ceramic clay bodies with plasticity come to life with various shaping methods in the hands of human beings for different purposes. Since the early ages, soil products can easily enter any shape, and this is sometimes an object of use, sometimes an artistic work ect. with different adventures. The first ceramic samples were used during the ‘Neolithic Age’ period and the soil was first used in the sun drying without firing, it is known that the pottery was fired in 7000 B.C. It is thought that the first jewelry samples were made of various dried plants, animal bones and natural stones. Ceramics emerged as a necessity because of the need. Jewelry, on the other hand, has been used since past ages with the need for ornamentation and religious ritual. Before the first glazed ceramic ornaments in the ancient Egyptian civilization, terracotta ornaments appeared in the museums as examples reflecting the culture of that period. With the emergence of new art movements and many other factors such as the industrial revolution, diversity in jewelry has increased in terms of both material and technique. An example of this diversity is the ceramic jewelery with crawling glaze. Crawling glazing, known as a glaze defect, provides visually effective results with the texture and color contrasts it creates on the surface. These effective results also attract the attention of jewelry designers and artists. Within the scope of this research, the subject of color and texture in jewelry design will be investigated and samples of jewelry artists using crawling glaze will be examined.
