Description

  • Stand of fan shape enameled beads with floral design on royal blue, 15x24mm
  • 32 beads per strand, these  lightweight beads with extra gilding at the top make fun earrings, and/or add horizontal interest to long necklaces
  • In cloisonné, copper filaments are glued or soldered to a metal surface to create tiny compartments, or cloisons, that are then filled with ground glass blended with metallic oxides to produce colorful enamels, and fired. After the enameling phase, the object is polished, and any exposed metal is plated gold or silver color.
  • Enameling is a process similar to cloisinne, but simple with fewer steps and the beads tend to be lighter weight
