- Cannetille Work - Cannetille work is a type of jewellery-making technique that involves the use of fine wire, typically made of gold or silver, to create intricate and delicate designs. The wire is shaped and twisted into various forms, such as leaves, flowers, and scrolls, and then applied to the surface of the jewellery piece. The wire is then soldered to the piece, and the excess wire is often removed to create a smooth surface.The technique originated in the 18th century in France and Italy, and was particularly popular during the Victorian era. It was often used to decorate brooches, bracelets, and necklaces, and was a highly skilled and labour intensive technique. Cannetille jewellery is known for its intricate and delicate appearance and is highly valued by collectors.
