Beautiful enamel ... snowdrops

Janine Partington is a designer-maker based in Bristol combining the traditional craft of enamelling with fresh, clean, contemporary design.

This handmade enamel picture is made from enamel and copper.

Vitreous enamel, also called porcelain enamel, is a powdered glass material which can be fused to a metal base by firing at a high temperature around 800°C. The powder melts, flows, and then hardens to a smooth, durable vibrant and glassy coating. On panels where copper is showing, this has been coated with a sifting of clear enamel known as flux which seals the colour. Once the panel is finished the design and colours are set and will not fade.

Janine says her inspiration comes from nature – ‘from the world I see around me’. Recurring images seed heads, trees and birds and still life kitchen objects.

Size: complete with frame 15cm x16cm. The copper panels are 8cmx8cm.
