ANTIQUE ENAMEL PENDANT: This particular pendant was created by using an ancient technique of metalsmithing and enameling. A preliminary sketch was made upon the base metal and the “framework” of the piece was done by bending fine ribbons of metal to match the design of the preliminary artwork. Once each tiny piece is in place and gently fired to hold its position, the process of wet packing the enamel onto the design then begins. A thin layer of color, which is created by crushing glass or minerals into powder, which in this case is cobalt, is packed into each division and then the piece is fired in a kiln. Many layers and firings go into one piece. Once the enameling process is complete, the piece is ground and and polished much the same way a gemstone is cut and polished.
