Vintage Enamel Pin

Vintage enamel pins are a fun and stylish way to decorate any outfit. There are a variety of different styles, each with their own unique design. The five main styles include cloisonné, plique-à-jour, basse-taille, champlevé, and painted enamel. Cloisonné is created using metal wires and colored enamels, which produce intricate patterns and designs. Plique-à-jour is made of thin wire outlines that allow light to pass through the colored enamel to create a stained glass effect. Basse-taille features raised metal frames with cutouts that are filled with colorful enamels. Champlevé is created by carving out the background of a design then filling in the depressions with colored enamels for an embossed look. Lastly, painted enamel pins create delicate images through fine brush strokes of colorful enamels on metal surfaces. With these five different styles of vintage enamel pins you can express yourself in creative and unique ways!
