Little Shields Red
$38.00
Like a warrior wearing armor,
Little red shields,
To protect you.
Red is the color of fire and blood, so it is associated with energy, war, danger, strength, power, determination as well as passion, desire, and love.
1" copper disks that I fold form and enamel with the most passionate shades of red enamels. I make the ear wires from sterling silver especially for these earrings.
Fold-forming allows you to take a hard cold piece of metal and make it look like something soft and organic.
Enameling is the art of fusing glass to metal. Enamel (glass) is crushed to a powder like the consistency of fine sand. This powder is then applied to a metal surface. Then the piece is heated either in a kiln, or with a hand-held torch. I prefer using a torch because I like to watch the enamel melt! More coats, normally different colors, can be applied. Sometimes 10-20 firings are required to bring about the desired results.
