Product Description
Product 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.
About the Author
Denise Palmer studied at the London Guildhall University, where she completed an HND and then a degree in Silversmithing and Jewellery. Denise exhibits her work both nationally and internationally and also teaches enamelling at a number of colleges.

"Craft" being the operative word
6 Sep 2007
This book is ok. It shows step-by-step how to complete many projects. I just thought the projects were pretty daggy and a bit ugly. I can see how you can learn the technique, I just wasn't very inspired. This book is more of a craft/hobby style book.
I also bought 'The Art of Enameling: Techniques, Projects, Inspiration' which I think is a fantastic book. If you are serious about making enamel jewellery I would recommend this book instead.
