The small test piece on the left (front and back) is the catalyst for the two Green Pots.

Annealled copper mesh was fitted closely to copper sheet metal and enamelled. I was thrilled with the results - how the mesh fused to the sheet copper. It took a couple of layers of enamel.

I then tried this on a larger scale with spun copper beakers. This shows the first coat of white enamel. The final beakers had a final coat of celadon green.
