| Description: | Enameling is an ancient process in which vitreous glass (enamel) is fused and bonded onto metal by the application of heat through kiln firing. The Craft Center is one of the few centers teaching this craft today! The types of metals preferred for enameling are copper, steel for large-scale work, and fine gold or silver for precious jewelry. Traditional techniques including cloisonné, champlevé, limoges, bassé taille and grisaille are taught in this course, as well as more contemporary and experimental techniques suitable for large scale works. Cost of enamels and metal not included. Materials fee not included in tuition. |
