Enamelling has it is own distinctive history in Jewellery that stems back some hundreds of years. Here is a very brief, summarised history. The word enamel comes from the High German word "smelzan" later getting "esmail" in Old French. Hence the current usage of "smalto" in Italian, "email" in French and German and "enamel" in English. It is therefore specified as a vitreous, glass like coating fused on to a metallic base. In history, enamels were initially used on first and foremost gold, then silver, copper, bronze and more latterly on iron and steel. The term is likewise applied for the application of ornamental fusible glass applied to glass objects. The earliest known enamelled objects were made in Cyprus in around the 13th century BC for the duration of the Mycenae period. Six gold rings ran into in a Mycenae tomb at Kouklia were prettified with respective vitreous coloured layers fused on to the gold. Now in innovative times enamels are applied to decorate architect cufflinks of all shapes and sizes using conventional methods supported by progressed technology, oftentimes combined with Swarovski Crystals, another favourite among jewellery designers.

If you are a fellow member of 3 honor societies, how do you recognise what to wear to graduation? I am a fellow member of Psi Chi (National Honor Society in Psychology), Golden Key International Honor Society, and Omicron Delta Kappa (National Leadership Honor Society) and do not recognise if I must wear all the medals, stoles, ropes, and tassel charms. I think it would look tacky...but at the same time, I have earned it and want to show it all off! Heck I am having more people come to this graduation than high school plus they are coming from all over the US just to see me graduate. Is there a rule on what must be worn and not worn and if there isn't what do you think I will have to do? wear all of it, a good deal of of it, or what? WEAR THEM! You worked so hard for those, your family ought to be so proud. I know I wore all my ropes, and bunch of medals and tassels, lol. BUt all of the smart kids felt cool for once. hahaha. |
