Virgo - zodiac sign - magnet. Dia. 6 cm; enameled metal
A great birthday gift!
Made using the enameled sign technique, exactly the same as street name signs or office plaques.
An extremely weather-resistant technique.
Enameling is one of the oldest and most durable techniques of artistic craftsmanship, known as early as the first millennium BC. The main component of enamel is powdered glass melted at high temperature, colored with metal oxides and applied to a metal base. This creates a glassy, durable, and colorful coating that can be ground and polished.
