    Ara mousavi nice job. the result is eye catching. I don't have much of info about this technique. is it possible to avoid using enamel between the foil and the copper it order to reduce the thickness of piece? if not.how thin may the enamel be?

    Trish White Just a light sift of clear enamel -fire then lay your foil on the top and refire - next lay your wires down - dry and fire -

    Ara mousavi Thank you both. Trish, I still have a lot of questions about cloisonne technique. I think I'd better ask them in a forum.

    Vivek Das Lines are not actual repousse'. I have altered an old tin edge folding machine to get these lines. It becomes faster to get cdircular lines on copper sheet from 2" upto 9" dia.

    Tina Carvalho There is an enamel artist from Japan who visits Honolulu twice a year. She had a wonderful enamel called 611 HT (Half Transparent) that is no longer made. The substitute I now use is Ninomiya P200 that is sort of a milky white.
