Annotation: The paper investigates the possibility of creating micromosaics using grains from hot enamels. Enamel grain is made from pieces of crushed hot enamels that acquire a spherical shape during firing in a muffle furnace. The mosaic image is formed by densely laying out on a metal base with an adhesive layer of spherical enamel grains of the same or different diameters in the range of 0,4–5 mm in accordance with the artistic idea. Enamel grain has a wide color palette, beautiful luster, hardness, durability and other advantages characteristic of hot enamels. All this makes enamel grain a very promising material for mosaic work. With its help, it is possible to form relief patterns, images, ornaments with a bright artistic expressiveness that are diverse in subject matter and coloristics. The method allows you to expand the possibilities of decorative enameling and the range of jewelry and art products.
Keywords: hot enamel, enamel grain, micromosaic, mosaic image, ornament, texture, jewelry and art products
