Enamelled copper - Shop

These enamelled copper drop earrings, with sterling silver wires, have been handcrafted by myself in Wiltshire. Sterling silver ear wires have been used for the earrings instead of copper to minimize the risk of skin irritation through the ear.

Enamelled copper jewellery involves applying powdered, coloured glass (enamel), which is lead-free, to copper pieces, and then firing them in a kiln at 800° C multiple times to fuse the glass to the copper. 1 layer is fused to the back and 3 layers are fused to the front, with a firing required between each layer. This creates a durable, colourful design.
