FAQs

Guilloche enamel involves engraving a metal surface with an intricate repetitive pattern under translucent enamel. This technique gained widespread popularity in the late 19th and mid-20th centuries, heavily utilised by Scandinavian and Russian silversmiths.

These pieces are typically crafted from sterling silver, often with a gold vermeil wash, combined with vitreous glass enamel powders fused to the metal base through high-temperature firing.

Authentic pieces usually feature specific makers marks, such as the scales symbol or D-A hallmark, alongside silver purity stamps like 925S or sterling indicators.

These colourful statement pieces work well pinned to coat lapels, chunky knit cardigans, or used to fasten scarves, adding a pop of vibrant colour and texture to classic tailoring.

Store enamel pieces separately in soft pouches to prevent scratching, avoid immersion in water or harsh chemical cleaners, and gently clean with a soft, dry microfibre cloth.
