Pink Lemonade - Copper and Enamel Earrings

Petal-shaped copper disks have been run through a rolling mill before the enamel was put on. I used a transparent rose and over-fired with a torch to create a smoky look toward the edges. The enamel I use is a vitreous powdered glass, which I torch fired in order to make the glass melt and create a smooth, colorful surface. I counter -enameled the reverse sides with a clear enamel for added stability.
