Enamel Glass
Artistic Treasure, Enamel Watch
Watch, is not a simple time tool any more. It is an important adornment to express your social state and taste. The brand, the craftsmanship, and the design, nowhere is not to tell people who you are, especially to the celebrities. So, wearing a right watch to match you does not mean anything yet.
Well, what kind of watch is a right one? Some people think up a method once for ever- the luxury brand watch! Woo, it is a good idea. But if you do pay your a little attention about the watch, such as visiting some high museums, you will find enamel watch is their favorite. Not only the high museums, but also many celebrities collect the enamel watches, such as Einstein, Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Queen Victoria, M.Maria Sk?odowska-Curie.
About a century ago, in pocket watch times, enamel has been used in the watch face. Enamel is really a thin layer of glass fused by heat on to the surface of a metal. The word enamel comes from the High German word “smelzan” and later from the Old French “esmail”. The Collins English Dictionary defines enamel as “a colored glassy substance, transparent or opaque, fused to the surface of articles made of metal, glass etc. for ornament or protection”.
About 400 years ago, the pocket watch is just a plaything to aristocracy, particularly the enamel painting watch. In modern times, as the aristocracy’s decay, it is never hear of changing an estate for an enamel pocket watch. In the Great Exhibition of London, on August, 18, 1851, Queen Victoria chose a Patek Philippe enamel pocket watch, and had been it over 50 years. This enamel blue is similar with the color of Queen Victoria’s pupils.
Nowadays, the enamel watch is not only a watch, but also a work of art. Its artistic value is much higher than the intrinsic. Following articles will introduce some classic enamel watches for you.
