Old Bay is a tasty seafood spice, but its fans put it on everything from popcorn to ice cream, though it is perhaps most famous as a crab seasoning. Old Bay was created by Gustav Brunn, who named this delicious seasoning after a Chesapeake Bay steamship line called the Old Bay Line. The bright yellow Old Bay tin is a true Maryland icon.
What is enamel?
Enamel is a jewelry decorating technique. Enameling uses colorful enamel to decorate jewelry with intricate patterns. The jewelry is first painted with enamel. Next, the piece is fired at very high temperatures. If part of the jewelry cracks while firing the damage can be irreparable. In fact, this makes intricately made enamel jewelry all the more precious.
