A group of enamellers had a lovely afternoon with her, discussing enamels and life in general. Unfortunately the rest of her trip did not go as planned. I do hope you can come out to visit us again some time, Trish.
  We called the photo "The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pansies."

  Hello Preeti. Thank you for telling me that Deepak is your brother.  It is wonderful to think of the dynasty that you share, and that the future of enamelling is safe in your family hands. This is truly another beautiful piece, so thank you for showing the world (and me). Are enamels produced anywhere in India, or do you have a preferred kind that you use (e.g. French, Japanese ?)
