Omschrijving

Ronde, zilverkleurige cloissone-broche van Sea Gems. Ingelegd met prachtig rood en groen email. Normaal gesproken zijn dit geen broches die ik aanbied, simpelweg omdat het 'mijn ding' niet is. Maar als je goed kijkt, erover denkt én leest, dan besef je wat een kunstwerkjes dit eigenlijk zijn. Sea Gems is een bedrijf in Cornwall welk in 1962 is opgericht. Het bestaat nog steeds en maakt de mooiste kunstwerkjes. Onderstaande is een stukje dat ik van hun site heb geplukt. Het zegt eigenlijk alles!

 

The Fine Enamel jewellery collection features Ancient Celtic artwork, designs inspired by the famous Scottish architect and designer Charles Rennie Mackintosh as well as animal , wildlife, floral and nature themes.  
Designed in Cornwall, UK and created by master enamelers. The technique of enamels or cloisonné, dates back to 13BC and was later made famous by jewellers like Faberge, Lalique and Tiffany in the 1900s.

It is a rare and difficult art form featuring powdered glass fused by fire into a hard-Vitreous glass, inlaid into Copper cells or cloisonné’s by hand, sanded, polished and finally Rhodium plated. The unique and lustrous colour will never change. The fine glass granules are meticulously applied by hand to the stamped metal with a quill. Each piece of jewellery is fired individually in a kiln at around 800 degrees centigrade for up to 5 or 6 minutes depending on the size of the piece and how much enamel is used.
Careful polishing and finishing is crucial to the final look of the jewellery. It takes great skill to achieve the right lustre within a design. With more than 30 years’ experience we have mastered these techniques to produce truly unique and timeless, allergy free jewellery.
