CANTON ENAMEL TEAPOT

Canton Enamel

2017

Badly repaired in the past with the application of a rubbery putty to attempt filling the enamel losses.


After removing all obsolete fills, revealing several losses to the enamel substrate, the metal surface was treated for corrosion and all losses colour-filled to match the white enamel layer. All missing decoration was reproduced by hand retouching, matching original’s style and decorative details.
