Thai silver jewelry, especially nielloware jewelry, is instantly recognizable. Detailed illustrations, often of animated figures in ornate dress, cast a striking silhouette against dark backgrounds, framed in bright sterling silver. Though the niello technique was used centuries ago in Europe, it is best known by today's jewelry collectors for its use in jewelry such as this. From the skilled craftsmanship, to the mythology, there is a lot more to these pieces than just their aesthetic appeal. The Thai nielloware technique involves carving a design into the silver, usually gods and goddesses, then using niello to fill in the negative space. The piece is then baked in an open fire to harden, cooled, and polished smooth. Additional fine details would be added by hand by a silver artisan. The effect is a high contrast emphasis on the motifs, making them pop forward.
