Exciting Enamel Jewelry
Richly colored enamel jewelry is one of today’s strongest fashion trends. And this elegant material of kings and czars is now available at prices anyone can afford.
There are two kinds of enameling methods, both of which produce similar looks. Traditional “hot enamel” uses powdered glass which is baked on metal at extremely high temperatures. With “cold enamel”, epoxy resin is baked at cooler temperatures.
Today, vividly colored enamels are available in rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and brooches. And you can choose from a wide range of eye-catching designs including flowers, butterflies, animals, birds, and miniature Fabergé-style eggs.
Popular hand-made miniature Fabergé-style eggs are created by Russian craftsmen in the artistic tradition of Carl Fabergé who produced spectacular jewel-encrusted eggs each year for the Czar of Russia.
Each colorful egg is made of sterling silver coated with vivid baked enamels, decorated with 24K gold gilt, and set with sparkling colored gems. Surprisingly affordable, these works of art can be worn as pendants, lockets, earrings, or on necklaces and bracelets.
