How was it made? Enamelling a brooch | V&A
Enamelling is a highly skilled technique in which coloured glass is fused to a metal base in the heat of a kiln to create glossy, vividly coloured metal objects.
This film shows the creation of an enamelled brooch – from the initial sketch to the final piece. Inspired by 18th-century silk designs, the brooch was made by Jane Short MBE, especially for the V&A’s collection.
The brooch features two different enamelling techniques: champlevé – where enamel is laid into spaces which have been carved out of the metal base, and basse-taille – where transparent enamels are used over an engraved pattern, allowing the pattern to be seen through the glass.
