   As for “terracotta jewelry” I found lots of places that sell it, but nothing about making it.
   The techniques look pretty much the same as using any air-dry clay (I don’t know if the Indian jewelry pieces are just dried, or if they’re further hardened with kiln-firing after drying) and the same as a polymer clay (which comes in terracotta color as well as other colors).

   In the U.S. we have a boxed clay called “Mexican Pottery Clay”

   It’s put out by Amaco and is basically the same thing as terracotta, I think, but the only lesson I could find for using it is this one:

   Here are some examples of Indian jewelry made with “terra cotta”:

   If you’re interested in making faux (fake) terracotta as jewelry or as anything else, you might want to check out these pages at my polymer clay encyclopedia for some basic ideas on shaping, terracotta-colored polymer clays, etc.:
