Scorpio - zodiac sign - magnet. Dia. 6 cm; enamelled metal
An excellent birthday gift!
Made using the enamel sign technique, exactly the same as street name signs or office signs.
This technique is extremely resistant to weather conditions.
Enamelling 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, coloured with metal oxides and applied to a metal substrate. A glassy, durable and colourful coating is formed, which can be ground and polished.
