DeLaneau’s Guardian Angel

June 2016


With the arrival of warm summer evenings and twinkling stars decorating the sky, Delaneau presents one of its latest creations: The DeLaneau Guardian Angel pièce unique, which celebrates its key signature, the art of Grand Feu enamelling.

DeLaneau's Guardian Angel

Angels have always featured prominently in the DeLaneau universe .The angels are usually depicted in monochrome, but the idea here was to explore the Renaissance style, with its pursuit of physical realism and use of unnatural colouring and lighting. This creation majestically showcases the combination of two techniques: la peinture miniature sous fondant (miniature painting with flux enamel), a method known as the Geneva technique, and paillonné enamelling.
