Copper enamelling - essentially, the melting of glass enamel grains
onto a copper surface - is an exciting and fascinating technique.
Enamelling on Copper highlights the unique interactions between
copper and enamels, and gives a detailed account of working with
this wonderful combination. The basic technique - simply sifting
ground enamels onto a copper surface and firing the two in a kiln
for one minute - is a thrilling experience, but delving deeper into
the techniques pays even greater rewards. Starting with an
introduction to enamels, this new book goes on to explain how to
work with an enamelling kiln, including temperatures and timings;
the different kinds of enamels and how they work together; the
enamelling process and how to control small sifted particles of the
glass enamels to achieve your designs. A final chapter is devoted
to the practice of firing the enamels higher than is necessary in
order to transform their colours to create unique effects.
