Enamel WareEnamel for Some Intricate Jewelry Boxes For Women
Of the many kinds of jewelry boxes for women, the loveliest ones are those made with enamel. You get enamel when powdered glass is fused into a substrate through a process of firing done at extremely high temperatures. The molten powder then flows into a vitreous coating over metal making it smooth and gorgeous.
The word enamel has a few vague references in two languages. It is possible to have originated from the Old High German word 'smelzan' which meant to smelt. It is also quite possible that it came from the French word 'esmail'.
The process of enameling we know today has been passed on from civilizations like the Egpytian, where cut, colored glass was used to decoratively fill in gold cells known as cloisonné. Perhaps from this point it was the Greeks or the Celts that took things a step forward and melted the glass.
Several civilizations like the Chinese, Indian and Roman made use of this art form. The artisans of Battersea and Straffordshire in England in the 18th century began to use enamel to create decorative boxes. These became a favorite among nobility for a number of purposes.
Nobility and royalty often gifted enamel boxes among themselves. These boxes were used to hold small jewelry, make-up and even snuff. In fact the royal class still prefer giving these boxes as gifts.
Russia's famed Peter Carl Faberg can be credited with taking enamel to new creative heights with the creation of the famous Fabergé eggs. Boxes in enamel can be complex to make depending on their design but here is an idea on how they are basically made.
Boxes generally start with a pure metal, with copper being oft-used and gold being the most expensive. They are shaped into desired patterns. Enamel is sprayed onto the box, then fired to get a really smooth finish. Once this part is done, the surface becomes unbreakable and strong. Boxes like these can last for centuries.
The image to be added will be drawn or photographed before it is made into a template. This helps when the design has to be hand painted onto the surface of the box. After this point, the design is fired again to fuse it to the enameled surface of the box.
There are a number of techniques used in enameling. Every one of them is different and comes out with a unique design. Of the several techniques Cloisonné, Champlevé, Grisaille, Limoges enamel, specific to Limoges in France and Plique-à-jour are popular besides others. Each technique is referred to by its French name and is unique in its looks.
So don't wait to go to a museum to look at some enamel work. Give yourself or a loved one with a box of this kind.
