Fire Enamels on Plates Decorative Art Piece #5

This fascinating object d'art owes its distinctive exclusivity to the employment of a refined technique that dates back to ancient Egypt. Set in a bold and rigorous frame combining burnished with acid-etched brass, the patterned "tile" takes shape under the pouring of enamels into the cells of a silver filigree, cells that, called "cloisons" in French, named the Cloisonné technique.
