Manufacturing technology of cloisonne

The manufacturing process of cloisonne enamel is detailed as follows:

I. Introduction:

1. The process of making stranded enameled wire paint is a traditional paint process. By kneading tiny metal wires into shapes, and then firing and glazing for many times, beautiful objects with luster and covering the metal surfaces such as stainless steel are finally formed.

2. The production process of cloisonne enamel is a traditional process to train craftsmen's skills and techniques, which combines various techniques such as metal technology, ceramic technology and painting art. Although this exquisite and tedious process is extremely difficult, it can create exquisite cloisonne enamel objects and become an indispensable part of China's traditional cultural treasure house.

Second, the process:

1. Raw material preparation: The raw materials needed in the process of making enamel with stranded wire mainly include stainless steel, metal wire, ceramic pigment and other metal plates, among which metal wire is the key, because it needs to be shaped by professional stranded wire technology. When preparing metal wires, it is necessary to select metal wires with different thicknesses according to the design requirements, and cut and bend them to make them meet the design requirements.

2. Pinch process: Pinch process is the key step to make pinch paint. This technology requires craftsmen's superb skills and mastery of design. When pinching wires, artisans need pliers to pinch metal wires into different shapes and wrap them around metal plates according to design requirements. This is a complicated process, which requires a lot of time and energy.

3. Firing and glazing: After the wire clamping process is completed, it needs to be fired and glazed. In the firing process, it is necessary to put the metal plate with metal wires in a high-temperature furnace for firing. In this process, the metal wires will also be welded to the surface, and the pigment will gradually melt and smear on the surface of the object with the firing process, forming a smooth and bright glaze.

4. Manual processing: The last step is manual processing. In the final stage of the production process, craftsmen need to grind and polish objects by hand to get better luster. Under the skillful hands of skilled craftsmen, cloisonne enamel objects present a detailed, uniform and bright metallic luster, and every detail reflects the ingenuity of craftsmen.
