Pam's Interview at Artisan Craft!

Pam (known as 'Klyph') was recently interviewed by Artisan Craft Club on Deviant Art for her finished jewelry. Her close link to the village allows her to work side by side with the artisans with similar tools and techniques. For years, Pam has been the great mind behind many of the new designs that come through Shiana. Her work has been passed to different Karen households to be recreated by the villagers as part of Shiana’s mission to diversify designs, encouraging the creation of unique items for each household instead of mass duplication of existing pieces.
