Very pretty results using polymer resins, but it's not glass (vitreous) enamels; when you are buying know what you are getting. Few years back, asked if the 'enamel' on a ring was glass or resin via email to the jewelry headquarters of the product from another company... answer came back that it was Italian Enamels, but did not answer if it was glass or resin....sorta suggests that it's not glass enamels on the ring in question; could have been this Italian product.
I'm not an expert on the resin products, but you drop the glass and it can crack. I understand some of the polymer resins can still be a bit soft so you could push something into the jewelry and it might leave a mark, but some other resin 'enamel's will harden to a firm solid surface, so hard to tell unless you take a sample of the material which you wouldn't want to damage your pieces. Often one easy way is the basic price; most glass enameling is a more complex process so can cost a bit more in materials and artist time, the glass material is hardened via a gas torch or a kiln with temps up to 1500 degrees. Resin polymer 'enamels' can harden under UV and LED light systems, so a lot less heat. Ideally, your jewelry manufacturer should tell you which your piece is made from if asked and if they won't advise, my guess it's probably resin 'enamel's and not glass. Why would I want to know... ultimately, how long will the resin 'enamel' last over time and with abrasion or discoloration while the glass can last a long time, generations, if not dropped or damaged. Ultimately, if you like the jewelry piece then buy it and enjoy it.
@@mrgreene3290 thanks for this info. I'm just figuring out how do they make this and all the methods involved because I'm trying to make such type of jwellery .
@@mrgreene3290Absolutely right. Glass Enamel technique is an art and perfectly fits in luxury products, whereas cheap polymer dye color resin curing using UV is cheap. To reduce the cost one will see in near future people using cheap decal coated with uv hardner. Its cheap and doesn't fit in luxury world. So its about the awareness and now young buyers are not aware and doesn't know what is exactly true. Here in India polymer resin is sold under the name of Ceramic Enamel and no one knows and pays 10x time. The fact is its just a plain polyer resin which cost 10x less.
Thank you for your interested in our product this is Epoxy resin with 2 components mixed and use. Regarding to glass enamel is different there is rock with different colors and you need to make it as powder then heat up over 600-1000 C to malt we called Hot enamel.
Product is called 'Eurotecniche' just like the CZcams video. Looks like she puts a film on the scales, then sets it to zero, adds about 2.03 grams (probably supposed to be 2.00 grams) of color resin (cold enamel), then likely resets the scale to zero which is not shown on the video, then adds .59 grams of the binder. That is what I can see per the video which may or may not be correct, but check out the vendor catalog for correct portion measurements if it's listed. Catalog products appear to be more for the larger industrial proposes. For smaller amounts of polymer Resins, might want to check craft, art and jewelry supply stores.
