Description

A Stamp Holder - Exquisite Handcrafted Enameled collectible crafted by Kelvin Chen. It is entirely handmade and numbered by the artisan who painted it. Look for "Kelvin Chen" at the bottom of the piece as well as the number next to it. Only a limited number of each design is produced.Enamel miniatures were first made in the 17th century by Frenchman Jean Toutin of Chateadun. The English learned the skills in the mid 18th century and applied hand painted enamel designs to copper boxes. These boxes captivated Georgian society and became collector's favorites. In modern days, however, transfer-printing technology is used to mass-produce these boxes.After much research and work, the old handmade tradition has been revived. This enamel collectible is entirely handmade and hand painted, much like its English predecessors centuries ago. Following the 17th century tradition, 23 processes are executed during many days of work. In addition to the laborious copper cutting, assembly, and enamel painting, no less than five firings are necessary to solidify the enamels and give them the bright luminous color. As with any handmade craft, minor imperfections are part of the charm. Born of fire, labor and tradition, this unique piece will surely bring you many generations of enjoyment.
