Description

This course is designed to refine your enameling techniques as we dive deep into one of the most renowned vitreous enamel processes, Cloisonné. Students will get hands on experience in the Cloisonné process as we utilize fine silver foils and wire, sifting, and wet-packing techniques to create unique designs. Students will focus on building their understanding of firing temperatures and times, as they slowly build layers of opaque and transparent enamel. Finishing techniques will also be further explored.
