Exposition – Marylène Davenne

Exhibition of art enamels

EMAIL & ME
The passion for enamel has a long history. After having exhibited in a number of craft markets, Christmas markets in many regions of France, at Exhibition Fairs (Angers, Amiens St Brieuc, Niort) at the Artisanales de Chartres in the shops of the Pôle des Métiers d'Art in Niort and Brouage , I changed direction and moved towards room rental. This formula allows me to be as close as possible to visitors and to be able to exchange ideas and take time with them.

For my manufacture, I use enamels for precious metals which vitrify at high temperatures (around 800°C). Enamel needs a support resistant to this temperature, this can be copper, gold or silver. I most often use copper which is enameled below and above. The enamel can be transparent, opaque or opal. Vitrification is necessary after each stage of the work, there will be at least 5. Vitrification reveals the brilliance and intensity of the colors. For my manufacturing, I respect the ancient techniques of Limoges. By visiting the exhibition you will be able to see jewelry, decorative objects to place or hang, examples of house plaques... I make these plaques at your request (dimensions, decorations, etc.). Enamel is in fact insensitive to the ravages of time.
