Finift is a technique for making works using vitreous powder, enamel, on a metal substrate. The glass coating is durable and does not fade over time; enamel products are distinguished by their special brightness and purity of colors. Enamel acquires the desired color after firing with the additives for which metal salts are used. For example, adding gold gives glass a ruby color, cobalt a blue color, and copper a green color.
