Enameling

So I have started my enameling class and love it. I was a bit ambitious for my very first project but I learned allot. 
Below is images of my first piece. You'll see the original copper piece. We were learning how to layer solid colors. The front is a dark teal blue , the back is speckled and last you have my final design. I got carried away and finished it before I realized I needed to take pictures.





As you know I like Renoir Matisse copper enameled jewelry. Here is another type of enameled piece from Vintage Trifari. notice the metal edge around it, allot of enamel jewelry has that edge to help protect the enamel from chipping.
