Meet the Artist
I believe in the transformative power of art and I am passionate about sharing my knowledge with others. " "Hi friends, my name is Kavita and I am a creative and innovative artist whose passion for enamel art has transformed my entire life. During my initial years, I owned a apparel manufacturing unit. I faced a significant turning point when my business closed. This challenging period, marked by financial instability and solitude, ignited a profound desire in me to pursue my true artistic calling.

"My journey into the world of vitreous enamel began when I attended the LAKME Fashion Week in 2004. The exquisite beauty of enamel jewelry captivated me, highlighting the intricate interplay of colors and craftsmanship. At once I made up mind to explore this unique art form, leading me to delve into the unpredictable yet rewarding realm of enamel.

"Eager to master enamel art, I sought out mentorship from my husband Kana Lomror, an esteemed figure in the field. Under his guidance, I immersed herself in the intricacies of the craft, completing advanced courses that honed my skills. This formal training, coupled with my relentless curiosity, allowed me to gain a deep understanding of the techniques and materials involved in creating stunning enamel pieces.

"The artistic process of creating vitreous enamel jewelry is a labor of love that showcases my commitment to quality and detail. Each piece of jewelry requires over 25-30 meticulous firings, a process that begins with sourcing high-quality copper. I carefully cut, clean, and shape the metal to form the foundation of my designs.

"The enamel itself is a finely ground glass that I prepare with great care. I crush glass chunks, wash the powder to remove impurities, and mixes colors to achieve the perfect hues. The application of each enamel layer is done with precision, followed by a drying phase before firing in a kiln preheated to temperatures exceeding 850°C. This intricate layering and firing process ensures a smooth, vibrant finish, making each piece uniquely beautiful and durable.

"In a world increasingly concerned with sustainability, I am committed to eco-friendly practices in my art. I prioritize the use of reclaimed metals and recycled glass, emphasizing the importance of minimizing environmental impact. This dedication not only enhances the beauty of my work but also contributes positively to the planet.

"I find a wealth of inspiration in nature, particularly during my visits to my parents’ farms . The serene landscapes and unspoiled beauty provide a refreshing escape from urban life, allowing me to recharge and connect with my creative instincts. The diverse flora and fauna I encounter often finds their way into my designs, reflecting in the colors and forms of my jewelry.

"I believe in the transformative power of art and I am passionate about sharing my knowledge with others. I conduct workshops and classes for aspiring artists, ranging from beginners to advanced students. My goal is to make the art of vitreous enamel accessible, ensuring that the techniques and traditions of this unique craft are passed on to the next generation.

"In addition to teaching, I am committed to uplifting my community. I conduct training sessions aimed at upskilling unskilled women workers and their daughters, empowering them with valuable artistic skills. By fostering creativity and craftsmanship, I hope to create opportunities for personal and economic growth.

"My core mission is to produce high-quality, affordable enamel jewelry. I believe that art should be accessible to everyone, and I work hard to strike a balance between quality and cost. This approach not only allows more people to enjoy my creations but also helps promote a greater appreciation for enamel art.

"My journey in enamel art is a testament to resilience, creativity, and community spirit. From my challenging beginnings to my flourishing career as an artist and educator, I continue to inspire those around me. Through my stunning jewelry, dedication to sustainability, and commitment to teaching, I am not only preserving the art of vitreous enamel but also paving the way for future generations to explore and celebrate this beautiful craft.

"I am very grateful to Novica for giving me an opportunity to showcase the beauty of vitreous enamel jewelry worldwide."
