1. What is Enamel (Olio a goccia) Tecnica?

Enamel is a glass powder (silica-based) that is applied to metal (come l'argento) and then fired in a kiln at 750–850°C to create a smooth, lucido, and colorful surface.

Common Enameling Techniques Used in Jewelry:

  • Cloisonné (Wire partitions filled with enamel)

  • Champlevé (Engraved recesses filled with enamel)

  • Plique-à-jour (Stained-glass effect, no backing)

  • Basse-taille (Transparent enamel over engraved metal)

  • Olio a goccia (Painted Enamel) – Hand-painted enamel for artistic designs

In Chinese jewelry manufacturing, “drip oil” (滴油) often refers to a simplified, cost-effective enameling method where colored resin or glass paste is applied like paint, then cured (either by heat or UV light).

2. Why Use Enamel on 925 Orecchini d'argento?

925 silver is a premium jewelry material, but it has limitations:

  • Limited color options (only polished, ossidato, or plated).

  • Scratches and tarnish over time.

Enamel solves these issues by:
✔ Adding vibrant, long-lasting colors.
✔ Protecting silver from tarnish and wear.
✔ Enabling artistic, disegni personalizzabili.

3. Key Advantages of Enamel on 925 Orecchini d'argento

  • Unlike plating (which wears off), enamel is fused into the metal, retaining brilliance for decades.

  • Disponibile in unlimited hues (opaco, traslucido, metallic).

✔ 2. Maggiore durata & Resistenza ai graffi

  • Enamel forms a hard glass layer, protecting silver from scratches.

  • More chip-resistant than paint or resin coatings.

✔ 3. Ipoallergenico & Skin-Friendly

  • Unlike some metal platings (which may contain nickel), enamel is inert and non-reactive.

  • Ideale per sensitive ears.

✔ 4. Unique Artistic Effects

  • Allows hand-painted details, gradients, and textures.

  • Can mimic pietre preziose, paesaggi, or abstract art.

✔ 5. Resistenza offuscata

  • Smalto seals the silver, reducing exposure to air and moisture that causes tarnishing.

  • Unlike heavy gemstones, enamel adds color without extra weight.

  • Glass-based enamel is less brittle than ceramic.

✔ 7. Cost-Effective Luxury Alternative

  • Achieves a high-end look without expensive gemstones.

  • More affordable than hand-set pavé diamonds or sapphires.
