Continuing Class (See prerequisites in description) Enameling
Description
Champlevé is a beautiful enameling technique where images are created by filling recessed areas in metal with vitreous enamels. Using techniques like sawing, filing, sweat soldering, wet packing, stoning, and patina, students will create a design in metal, solder it to a metal backing, then fill the open areas in the design with colorful enamels to be fired in the kiln. Students will complete one or two pieces of jewelry or small works of art.
PREREQUISITE: Enameling I and Jewelry 1, or equivalent prior experience enameling, sawing, and soldering.
