Book Overview

Jeweler’s Enameling Workshop is an instructional book by Pauline Warg, a classically trained jeweler and metalsmith. It is designed for beginners with no experience in enameling or metalsmithing, as well as those with some experience who want to expand their knowledge.

The book is organized into two main sections: enameling basics and projects. The basics section explains enamel types, supplies, kiln use, firing processes, techniques, and safety. The project section offers a varied collection of earrings, pendants, rings, bracelets, and necklaces.

Why This Book Matters

Enameling is an expansive technical art form that allows jewelers to add color without gemstones. The author studied cloisonné, champlevé, and plique-à-jour with masters of these skills, and she shares that knowledge in a clear workshop format.

Because the projects move from simple to more advanced, the book supports steady skill development. It is a useful reference for both studio jewelers and hobbyists who want to make enameled jewelry at home.
