Excerpt from Enamels and Enamelling: An Introduction to the Preparation and Application, of All Kinds of Enamels for Technical and Artistic Purposes for Enamel Makers, Workers in Gold and Silver, and Manufacturers of Objects of Art The materials employed by the ancients for colouring glass and enamel were precisely the same as those used at the present time, the chemical analysis of antique coloured glasses and fluxes showing that red was produced by. Cuprous oxide, green by cupric oxide, and blue by means of cobalt. To what extent the development of the art of glass-making had attained among the ancients is evident from the circumstance that they were thoroughly aware of the decolorising effect of manganese oxide on glass coloured green by iron, and made use of this body for purifying the glass. The art of manufacturing decorative articles, vessels, weapons and other objects, had already attained a high degree of perfection in the Orient at the time when the Crusades brought Europeans into closer contact with the inhabitants of Western Asia; and it was most probably through the Crusaders returning from the Holy Land that these arts first became domiciled in France and Italy.

"Enamelling was used in the medieval period to embellish the most revered objects -- the altarpieces and reliquaries of cathedrals, the crowns and drinking cups of kings. The technique of enalling, fusing coloured glass to a metal surface by intense heat, enabled the metalworker to create an enduring polychrome image and to tell a story as forcefully as any painter. The V&A has an outstanding collection of pre-Renaissance enamels, ranging in date from Roman times to the fifteenth century and in country of origin from Ireland to Constantinople. Few of them have previously been reproduced and this colourful introduction, revealing a little of their beauty, explains the historical and artistic context of their manufacture." - back cover.

Though enamel buttons have been around for centuries and are favorites of button collectors, there has not been a book completely dedicated to their study . . . until now! Author Karen L. Cohen brings her unique perspective as an enamelist, Studio Button Artist, and educator to Enamel Buttons: An Essential Resource for Collectors. Meticulous research combined with her insights about the properties of enamel and the techniques used in buttons make this a must-have book for every collector. Hundreds of photos provide examples of the various techniques and button types and are a valuable resource for study. Cohen explains why things look like they do, such as why Motiwala Bros. “Liquid Enamel” buttons look like they flow, while also helping the collector distinguish between closely related techniques, such as Champlevé and Cloisonné or Monochrome and Grisaille. Her extensive research on the evolution of enameling techniques provides the history chapter with fascinating facts intertwined with how they relate to enamel buttons. Cohen has documented many of the enamelist makers along with their back marks, making it easier for collectors to identify button finds. The appendices include related information such as how to identify enamel look-alikes such as CPE (cold plastic enamel) and restoration techniques. If you already collect enamel buttons, this is an essential resource for understanding your collection in more depth. If you are curious about the topic, this book tells it all: history, material, techniques and embellishments, makers, and more. If you are a collector of other types of enamelware or are fascinated with enameling or are someone who resells enamels such as antique dealers, this book is an excellent resource about the various aspects of enamel in general. Lastly, it’s a button book you will enjoy paging through again and again, admiring the hundreds of glorious enamel buttons!

Copper enamelling - essentially, the melting of glass enamel grains onto a copper surface - is an exciting and fascinating technique. Enamelling on Copper highlights the unique interactions between copper and enamels, and gives a detailed account of working with this wonderful combination.

Starting with an introduction to enamels, this new book goes on to explain how to work with an enamelling kiln, including temperatures and timings; the different kinds of enamels and how they work together; the enamelling process and how to control small sifted particles of the glass enamels to achieve your designs. A final chapter is devoted to the practice of firing the enamels higher than is necessary in order to transform their colours to create unique effects.This book wiill be of great interest to all enamellers, jewellers and metal workers at all levels and is beautifully illustrated with 226 colour photographs.
