Rice
Jewelry
“Name on Rice" jewelry is jewelry that
centers around the fascinating and amazing art of writing on rice. Writing on
rice is an age-old tradition, which requires great skill and much practice to be
done well. Using a fine writing instrument, the artist writes on a grain of
rice. The grain of rice is then sealed in a glass vial within a magnifying
solution. In addition to the grain of rice, other small mementos are often
placed in the vial for decoration or personalization. Popular mementos include
miniature flowers, beads, and birthstones. Miniature roses and birthstones are a
special order and must be specifically requested. The glass vial can then be
used in the jewelry making process to produce beautiful "Name on Rice"
necklaces, earrings, bracelets, key chains, etc. "Name on Rice" jewelry is
believed to bring good luck and fortune to its recipients.
