Inspired Enamels - Carly Wright Jewelry

Inspired by sedimentary rock formations and their

sometimes subtle, sometimes bold colorations

Carly Wright creates champlevé enamel jewelry

using a theme of abstract

windows and doors to serve as the

settings for the luscious colors.

Champlevé enameling can be a tedious process,

requiring painstaking attention to surface preparation

and firing times. This artist will make as many as

thirty firings of colored transparent glass

before the recessed areas hold sufficient enamel.

Only then can she complete the process by

oxidizing the sterling silver setting and

burnishing its surface.

The results are certainly eye catching.
