Hola, A Wee Bit about Damasquinado de Oro Jewelry Origin

Damasquinado de Oro Jewelry is created in the city of Toledo, Spain by artisans at Anframa, S.A.  A Craft brought to Spain, this art of decorating non-precious metals with 18 and 24 carat gold  has remained virtually unchanged over the centuries.  Damaquinado de Oro items generally reflect two district types of patterns; the Arabesque or geometric designs, and the Renaissance motifs, displaying variations of birds and flowers.  These patterns are obtained by engraving deep, patterned cuts into steel and then placing a gold foil into lines of the design.  This foil is hammered until the gold penetrates into the cuts.  Each piece is treated with a bluing solution to obtain oxidation and the black background is formed.  All non-decorated areas are plated with 24 carat gold and any piece may be cleaned in the traditional way by using bread crumbs soaked in olive oil.  We hope you will enjoy this unique piece of Spanish craftsmanship for many years to come. Gracias y Adios!
