Even though I have several kilns in my studio that I could use for creating enamel jewelry, I prefer to watch the process develop during torch firing. Here are two examples of recent work that involves embedding millefiori and lump enamel into the base enamel during the firing process. Millefiori is Italian for million (mille) flowers (fiori) and has its origins in Venice.
