Description
An ancient art that dates back to at least the 5th century BC, enamelling is a highly distinctive craft form defined by a simplicity of design combined with rich colours. Working with metal and glass is, for many, a continuation of an ancient tradition. This book contains all the information necessary to produce 25 projects, including a cloisonne bowl and a banded ring. A comprehensive techniques section shows you how to prepare enamels and metal, how to apply enamels to the metal, and then how to fire a piece.
