She examined Carlos Museum objects and considered the chemistry that enables this process. She also participated in a demonstration of the technique conducted by jewelry artist and gemologist Kathy Kinev. Granulation relies upon surface tension and the addition of a solute to a solution. These general chemistry concepts explain how ancient artists created such delicate and spectacular objects. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2HQFHtVDdo&feature=emb_logo">Click here</a> for a video describing this work. com.gallerysystems.emuseum.core.entities.Classification@achttps://collections.carlos.emory.edu/objects/9072/rdf
