Champlevé

Champlevé

Is a decorative technique that involves creating sculptures or engravings on a thick metal surface and filling them with enamel coating.

The champlevé technique is applied by carving or engraving the desired design onto the metal surface, resulting in distinct cells or areas. These areas are then filled with enamel coating, usually in different colors, and exposed to high temperatures to fuse the coating with the metal surface. After cooling, the component's surface is polished to achieve a smooth and even finish, enhancing the vibrant colors of the enamel. The champlevé technique is often used in watch enameling, showcasing high skill and craftsmanship in watchmaking.
