There are things that just feel right – like a Cup of hot tea in the morning or a cozy breakfast in the sunshine. And then there are special things that make such moments even more beautiful. For us, that is our new enamelware, which you can discover in our shop.
Perhaps you have already felt the gentle texture of enamel or admired the subtle shine that defines it. But what really makes this material special is the story it tells. Each of our pieces is crafted with elaborate handwork, with much dedication and care. This makes each item a small unique piece that brings long-lasting joy.
In this article, we show you how to properly care for your enamelware so it can accompany you for a long time. We discuss the special features of this traditional material and show you why we at Eulenschnitt have fallen so deeply in love with enamel.
What makes enamel so special?
Enamel is a true traditional material with a long history dating back to the Middle Ages. It consists of a glass coating applied to metal and fired at high temperatures. This creates an especially smooth and durable surface that is not only aesthetically pleasing but also practical: Enamel is extremely durable, hygienic, and even heat-resistant.
But what we especially love is that enamel is made by real handcraft. No piece is like another, and the small, charming irregularities make each item unique. Through the elaborate production and attention to detail, our enamelware becomes a faithful companion in your everyday life.
While the Cups and plates are carefully handcrafted and hung on hooks to dry, these small hooks leave a special fingerprint – tiny holes that indicate real craftsmanship at work. For us, it is exactly these small imperfections that emphasize the uniqueness and make each piece a favorite.
