These enamels are fine glass powders fused to fine silver. They are fired in a kiln at about 1350 degrees for a minute and a half, twenty times or more. Each grain of enamel is the size of a sugar granule, and is sometimes placed grain by grain to achieve the subtle variations of color and shading. After the enamel is completed, it is ground with diamond wheels and water. Like any glass item, it should be handled carefully and simply cleaned with a polishing cloth. An ultrasonic cleaner or harsh abrasive polishes may damage your enamel. These are all one of a kind, hand made by Susan Knopp.  Susan's work is in over five books, and many magazines. She has received many awards including the Award of Excellence in Japan for enameling. Google her for more info and articles.   Email us at  knopp@directcon.net
