In this demonstration focused, multi-week class, students will learn the foundations of enameling on metal to create lightweight, wearable jewelry. Utilizing traditional metal fabrication and cold connections, students will learn silver soldering, earwire fitting, filing, sanding, and sawing, and light forming. They will then take their prepared metal and apply multiple layers of vitreous glass enamel, which will add color and even potential imagery to their new wearable pieces. Finally, students will learn about finishing and care to make their pieces sustain everyday wear and comfort.
