Beschreibungen/Notizen

• THE art of enamelling on metal is not of English origin; the word "enamel" is foreign (Fr. en esmail, and Ger.Schmelz), and the terms describing the processes employed are foreign likewise. The remarkable collection now on view at South Kensington, chiefly brought together by means of loans, will no doubt render many persons familiar with the results of these processes, and may even induce a few to seek explanation of such mysterious words as cloisonne, champleve, &c.
