Marvelous Monday
Using the ancient technique of cloisonne to decorate her jewelry, Francis Kite adds wonderful color to all the compartments (or cloisons). Each compartment is made up of silver or gold wires that are soldered to the metal preparing it for the enamels. Her final pieces are a combination of enamels, precious metals, diamonds, or pearls. These pieces become family heirlooms and will be passed on to future generations. Hope you enjoy and have a marvelous Monday!

Very pretty earring with the glow of gold in it...Gold and silver are the most loved metals which have been a craze for a while...now with the reeling prices it is a difficult purchase than most others.
