Art Glass - High Enamel Technique
The origin of this interesting technology is dated in the break of the 19th and 20th century. Pure gold and platinum are used for the decoration. It is laid on the glass in fluid state by a paintbrush and then burnt in special furnaces. Arabesque-shaped or floral motifs embossed layers are gradually laid on the foundation layer of gold by a paintbrush. Repeated burning and laying next layers cause their plastical look. The process of laying and burning generally repeats four times, in the case of more difficult decorating even more times. Glass colours is basically overground low-fusing glass. A painter has to mix an appropriate colour with a vehicle perfectly, then he lays the colour on cleared form and burns according to the kind of colour and glass by the temperature of 540 to 580°C.
