Special topics are designed to teach new techniques to students with basic enameling experience. For this Topic, students will learn to create small three-dimensional forms out of copper mesh, which will then be coated in the beautiful colors of liquid, sifted and other forms of enamel. Jewelry pieces (such as earrings or pendants), small vessels or decorative objects will result.

Finished jewelry pieces or small tiles will result.
