"Water" Cloisonne Enamel Pendant handmade by Laura Haszard

"Water" Fine silver Cloisonne Enamel Pendant 0n a sterling silver omega chain handmade by Laura Haszard. 
This is a vitreous transparent enamel and fine silver pendant inspired by the stain glass windows by Joan Vila Grau depicting Water in the Sagrada Familia Church. The technique of cloisonné enamelling was used. The design was created with very thin fine silver wire creating small cells, or cloisonné, into which coloured vitreous enamel was gradually applied. Each layer of the vitreous enamel was fired at 760C for about a minute. There can be 20-30 of these layers until the cells are filled. The whole piece is finally ground back with diamond files to expose the silver wire and then refired and polished before being set in sterling silver.

Dimensions: 30mm x 25mm on a 45mm chain

Care Instructions: Polish as required with the soft cleaning cloth provided and store separately from other jewellery when not worn.
