The Philadelphia Museum of Art Craft Show is always a great resource for post material. Lisa Crowder’s enamel pieces are “kiln-fired vitreous enamel on copper stitched with thread — set in oxidized sterling silver. Pieces are completely hand fabricated — hand stitched. The copper is drilled prior to enameling. Multiple layers of enamel are then fired on both sides — then etched to create a matte finish. Once this is completed the piece is stitched — set in sterling.”

One unifying element appears in Lisa Crowder’s metal work…circles. Be sure to take time to look at the rings in the metal and enamel categories…the stacked circles are a design that seems to be gaining popularity.
By necessity, all posts this week will be very short. As you read this, I am attending the High Point Furniture Market in North Carolina. Look for updates about the ‘hot’ colors that we will see translated into fashion in the next few months.
