How They Compare to Roman Tavast Enamels
Our Roman Tavast selected enamel range includes powdered opaque and transparent vitreous enamel in 32 shades, supplied in 50 g jars or refill bags. With a finer, ready-to-use powder (melting point ~790 °C), they’re ideal for immediate use without grinding, and they excel in both kiln and torch applications.
Having the choice between both grainy and powdered enamels, you now have the freedom to choose the texture, finish, and working method that suits your style and project best.
