Enameling – Champleve-Cloisonne 2-Day Workshop with Ilene Kay
April 18 - April 19
All skill levels welcome / 9:00 am-5:00pm each day
In this class, you will have a taste of both processes and create a pair of earrings or a pendant of your design. Champleve does not require a separate setting for a finished piece. Cloisonne uses wires to separate the cells of color. Combining these will give you a pied that has the best of these techniques.
