Condition is new, never worn. Granulation is an ancient technique involving the fusion of metal pieces at temperatures near their melting point.

High karat gold is used because of its long melting range. Any size pieces can be fused, but it is especially useful for very small detail such as granules so their distinctness is not lost by solder.

Great skill is required to fuse the granules without melting the piece. The item "Granulated 22K 18K gold cross pendant with mexican fire opal and rose quartz" is in sale since Wednesday, September 05, 2012.
