| Enamel
and Guilloche' roses were popular throughout the 20th century and before. Many of these
pieces are from the 1940's - 1950's. Pastel hand painted enamel was applied over smooth or machine engraved decorative metal. The translucent enamel is accented by the metal design underneath which adds dimension and interest. Coro and Elgin, ESPO and Vargas were companies which produced a lot of these designs. Click here to see a Coro advertisement from 1950 which shows a locket. Also included on this page are hand painted roses and flowers on porcelain, metal and wood.
