Lace bowl

Lace bowl, purchased by the V& A museum, presented a new challenge for Alexandra: “Could I make a bowl full of holes? It was an interesting puzzle and I loved trying to figure out all the problems I had during the process.” The surface of the copper bowl was decorated with enamel using Alexandra's technique developed from the plique-à-jour method. The vitreous enamel is applied in layers, allowing the colours to blend, resulting in a light and ethereal effect.
