Can I mention Erika Speel Dictionary of Enamelling as a reference (being connected to the author)? Jackiespeel 18:11, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I removed an external link someone added to: http://www.frey-wille.com/
I don't think this is the place to advertise commercial sites with no educational content.

In my opinion the Erika Speel reference would be a good contribution.


[edit] Pre-enamelling technique?

I came here looking for a technique i'd read about similar in technology ,creation and function to enamelling, but can't fid it. it was used by the scandanavian cultures (Viking era peoples) and IIRC, also used high temp baking ,but didn't use glass, but something else... anyone help?ThuranX 19:20, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

nevermind. it's niello.ThuranX 06:52, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Not enough science or technology

How does the process work? What sort of glass is used? Need much more info. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Scott Adler (talkcontribs) 08:55, 5 February 2007 (UTC).

I agree to this - we do need a lot more on the technology here. Ruth Fillery-Travis (talk) 17:46, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Enamelling - not just a metalworking technique

I have added a brief section on Roman glass vessel enamelling, but I wanted to point out that enamelling isn't just a metalworking technique. Perhaps someone who knows how (sorry, i'm just a beginner) could link this article to glass working etc as well? Ruth Fillery-Travis (talk) 17:45, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
