Vitreous Enamel

“Alchemy of Fire, Color, and Time.”

 

“Seek not to measure the material, but rather the power within.”
— Manilius

 

Vitreous enamel is crafted by melting finely powdered glass onto metal, forming a radiant, glassy layer with extraordinary permanence. The result is a rich, high-gloss surface—bold in color, resistant to time, and synonymous with fine jewelry craftsmanship.

This technique has been used for more than 3,500 years, beginning in the ancient Near East and later spreading to Egypt, Greece, and Rome. Early makers used enamel to decorate jewelry, weapons, and sacred objects with long-lasting color.

Today, vitreous enamel is still loved for its shine, strength, and handmade quality, connecting ancient craftsmanship with modern design. Vitreous enamel remains prized for its timeless brilliance, durability, and handcrafted artistry, bridging ancient tradition with modern design.
