How we create cloisonne enamel pieces
-
The pattern is made on a metal basis with thin Fine Silver or Gold wires which form the cloisons.
-
Enamel powder mixed with water and lay on the silver basis into the made cloisonne cells.
-
The item is put into the kiln, where the enamel melts at 800°C temperature. 3-4 layers are needed to achieve colour depth.
Lastly, jewellery is polished until its surface gets a glossy brilliant look.
"Enameling is such a complex, unpredictable and at the same time powerful tool for creativity which you can learn and experiment with all your life.
I am an artist, but I always wanted to make jewelry. Since making jewelry is a craft, only enamel, I think, makes jewelry craft to fine art. The reason why I use enamel in my works, this technique gives me the opportunity to make art by making jewelry. Enamelling craft elevates jewelry to a high level."
