This type of work is call Basse-taille. This a French word which means "shallow cut". The term refers to an enameling technique which has chased relief metal overlaid with a translucent enamel finish. During the process, the metal is engraved deeply enough so that the enamel can be held when heated. It also has sides high enough to be sure that the colors of the enamel are kept separate. The addition of the translucent enamel allows light to reflect from the relief and creates a very artistic effect. The end result has a loved play of light and shade and a brilliance of tone. So.. translucent enameling.
