Shimobashira frost flower enamel necklace

This unique necklace is designed with the ephemeral Shimobashira frost flower blooming in the winter wilderness of Mt.Takao. The unique thin film of ice is expressed with delicate engraving patterns on the base metal and basse-taille enamel. About Basse-tille Enamel Basse-tille enamel is a technique in which a fine engraving pattern is applied to the base metal, and the pattern is carefully covered with a transparent glaze and fired so that the pattern rises to the surface. The surface of the base metal, which is designed and shaped, is then covered with a variety of glazes and fired in a kiln at approximately 800°C. After the glaze is applied, the surface is polished to enhance the color effect. The transparency of the enamel in combination with the advanced engraving technique produces a unique beauty that cannot be found anywhere else.
