What It Is, How It’s Made & Why It’s a Must-Have in 2025
Enamel jewellery has captured the hearts of fashion lovers for centuries — and in 2025, it’s making a vibrant return to the spotlight. Loved for its bold colours, intricate craftsmanship, and vintage charm, enamel jewellery effortlessly combines artistry and style.
At Anais&Aimee, we celebrate this timeless technique, offering a carefully curated selection of enamel jewellery that blends vintage inspiration with modern flair. In this guide, we’ll explore what enamel jewellery is, how it’s made, and why it deserves a place in your jewellery box.
What is Enamel Jewellery?
Enamel jewellery refers to pieces where powdered glass (enamel) is fused onto metal surfaces through high heat. This technique creates a smooth, glossy finish in vivid colours — from jewel tones to soft pastels.
Its history spans centuries, from ancient Egyptian adornments to the bold designs of the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods. Today, enamel’s eye-catching beauty makes it a standout feature in both handmade earrings UK collections and vintage jewellery edits.
How is Enamel Jewellery Made?
Crafting enamel jewellery is a meticulous process requiring both skill and patience:
Metal Base Creation — Silver, gold, or silver plated jewellery serves as the canvas.
Enamel Powder Application — Fine powdered glass (often coloured) is applied to the surface.
High Heat Firing — The piece is fired in a kiln at temperatures between 750°C to 850°C, fusing the enamel to the metal.
Detailing & Polishing — After cooling, the piece is often engraved, inlaid with gemstones, or combined with other materials for a unique finish.
At Anais&Aimee, we work with artisans who specialise in these traditional techniques, ensuring each enamel piece reflects both heritage craftsmanship and modern creativity.
Why Enamel Jewellery is a Must-Have for 2025
Bold Colour Makes a Statement
In a sea of minimalism, enamel jewellery stands out with vibrant hues and glossy finishes. Whether it’s a pair of handmade earrings UK with enamel detailing or a vintage-inspired pendant, enamel instantly adds personality to any look.
Vintage Meets Modern
One reason enamel jewellery feels so fresh today is its vintage connection. Many enamel techniques were perfected in past eras — from the decorative swirls of Art Nouveau to the bold geometrics of Art Deco. Adding a piece of enamel jewellery to your collection is like wearing a little piece of history, reinterpreted for now.

Artistry That Lasts
Unlike some fashion jewellery, quality enamel jewellery is made to last. The fired enamel becomes as hard as glass, ensuring your handmade earrings UK or enamel necklace keeps its brilliance for years to come. This makes it perfect for creating meaningful keepsakes that evolve with your personal style.
