The method used is descriptive quantitative, with a pre- experimental design, a one-shot case study model, and an experiment in the form of 5 necklace accessories products made from polymer clay inspired by the shape of the embroidery soutache technique with the type of princess necklace. The research data was obtained from an assessment instrument given to 5 expert panelists, and the assessment was measured using a graded rating scale with a scale of 1-4. The results of the study from the design element indicator got a score of 3,448 with a percentage value of 86.2% included in the excellent category.
