Enamel Jewelry by Joan Bazzel
New cloisonne enamel jewelry by Asheville, NC artist Joan Bazzel.
Each of her pieces are painstakingly crafted from silver and gold settings, then finished with gemstones and enamel paintings. She adds detail to every inch of her work, from the top of the ring to the entire shank. She currently lives just outside of Asheville in Franklin, NC, humbly producing her art and pushing herself to new heights.
"Pedantry and pedigrees have never concerned me. I don't intend to suffocate you with grandiose elaborations about my history....lets just say it's been colorful. I have had many talented "mentors" along my journey who served as guideposts for my creative ambitions, and I am thankful for their shared knowledge.
My medium of choice is vitreous enamel, although I spent many years as a silversmith/jeweler before being introduced to enamel. After that discovery, I merged the two disciplines in various ways to be able to earn my living from selling my work.
I've been at it for over 40 years."
