Description: | A raised division bisects this shallow bowl, featuring two triangular shaped enamelled inserts at either end. The main bowl shape is made from cast iron, whilst the enamel panels contain silver with 18 carat gold borders. The enamelling seen on this piece is a particular type known as cloisonn��. The fine lines are achieved with a combination of fine silver wire and the traditionally used triangular shaped silver. Jane Short applies this technique to jewellery making as well as to her metalwork. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East craft metal makers contemporary craft | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
