What kind of metal?
Is enamel cold or hot?
Is it a suspension or what?

Copper enameled with fine silver cloisonne wires, rivets, silver and gold foil. There will be cubic zirconia placed in the rivet holes at the end. The enamels are fired in the kiln between 1400 and 1500 degrees. There are a combination of transparent and opaque enamels in the piece.
