Vitreous Enamel Sapphire and Ruby Flower Earrings

$32.00

Description

Vitreous enamel consists of finely ground glass powder that I sift over hand cut copper shapes. This is then carefully heated with a plumbers torch to reach1500 degrees. At that temperature, the powdered glass liquifies, and for the crackle technique it spreads, forming a distinct pattern. The pieces are then allowed to slow cool for several hours after which time the glass is permanently adhered to the metal underneath. 

These hand cut flower shapes are enameled with a lovely contrasting mix of sapphire blue and ruby red enamel and accented with faceted crystal beads. Silver filled ear wires complete the look.
