glass enameling

Glass enameling is a technique where powdered glass is fused onto a metal or ceramic surface through high-temperature heating. The powdered glass melts and bonds to the substrate, creating a smooth, durable, and colorful decorative coating. This process is often used on jewelry, tableware, and architectural objects to add vibrant designs and protect surfaces. The key steps include applying the powdered glass, firing it in a kiln at high temperatures, and sometimes adding multiple layers or colors to achieve intricate patterns. The result is a permanent, glass-like finish that enhances both the aesthetic and functional qualities of the item.
