Introduction to Enamelling with Sara Barker

Enamel is powdered glass which fuses to metal when heated in a high temperature kiln, producing a rich and glossy surface ideal for lovers of shape, pattern and colour.
Guided through each stage of this lovely process you will try the two application techniques of applying dry or wet enamel to copper test pieces, preparing you to make quality, wearable pieces.
Once the class is underway, there will be time to experiment, explore and learn how the different enamel powders behave when layered and fired together. You can try out elements of surface design via pattern making and colour combinations.
After testing the process, you will be able to make your final design with confidence and finish them with sterling silver hoops or hooks.
