About Cloisonné Enamel
Cloisonné Enamel - Georgian enamel developed in the 8th century. With its very colorful and transparent design, accompanied by the sense of beauty and the Georgian spirit.
Around the 15th century, enamel technology stopped its evolution and was forgotten for a long time. Since the 1990s, after a long pause, enamel art has started to flourish again. Today many craftsmen work in this field.
Enamel Technology - The process of enameling is carried out with the classic technique (made of copper, silver or gold). Silver wires stick on the metal and empty spaces are filled with the enamel powder. Afterwards the plate is placed in a small kiln, where it is “baked” at a high temperature 750-800 celsius). The next stage is refining and polishing the surface of the “baked” plate. After going through the described stages, the product takes its final shape. This is how the most beautiful jewelry is made. The process is quite labor-intensive, making each high-quality, hand-crafted piece entirely original.
Enamel powder – a substance similar to firm glass coating - is used to cover the surface of the product. Here are the main components of almost all kinds of enamel: silicon dioxide SiO2, boron anhydride B2O3, aluminum oxide Al2O3, titanium oxide TiO2, oxides of alkali and alkali soil metals, lead and zinc oxides, some fluorides, etc.
