About Damascene
Damascene jewelry is a type of ornamental metalwork that originated in the city of Damascus, which is now in modern-day Syria. It is characterized by intricate designs created by inlaying precious metals such as gold or silver into a contrasting metal base, often steel or iron.
The technique involves etching the surface of the base metal to create patterns or designs and then filling those etched areas with the precious metal. This creates a striking contrast between the two metals and results in highly decorative pieces of jewelry or other decorative items such as vases, plates, or boxes.
Damascene jewelry is known for its fine craftsmanship, intricate designs, and historical significance, and it has been produced for centuries in various parts of the world, including Spain and Japan, following similar techniques.
