Mrs. Heath's Silverwork
Feature of Exhibition
One of the two attraction!
of the uo-show t Willamette
university is the silverwork by
Mrs. Pearl B. Heath being
shown with the paintings of
Demetrlos Jameson. Because
the materials , are expensive
and the processes either com'
plicated or tiring, silver-smith'
ing Is restricted to a few brave
artisans of boundless patience
and exceptional endurance,
Mrs. Heath, head of the art
department at the Oregon Col
lege of Education in Mon
mouth, has sent to Salem beau
tiful examples of this rather
unique work. Her models are
striking contemporary designs
evolved from a craft dating
back at least 3,900 years to the
early Greek civilization.
' After numerous visits to
metalsmlth's studios abroad
including Europe, Egypt, India
and South America, she is able
to bring to her work a vast
knowledge of world-wide tech
niques. While in India, Mrs.
Heath visited one shop with
celling so low that she had. to
stoop to walk across it, sup
plied with no light except that
of . the worker's torches and
equipped with only the sim
plest of tools. Yet, from such
shops as this India produces
top-ranking metalwork. Last
summer, Mrs. Heath studied
with Herr Hans Pileghard of
Zurich, Switzerland and she
will return there this August
for further study,
sThe tools would "be familiar
to : any old-fashioned village
blacksmith. Mrs. Heath, who
la alight in stature, only 5 5
. tall, works at a forge heating
me silver to a malleable con'
sistency and wields a six-pound
: hammer to force it into shape.
"It is possible to make two
; large spoons and four small
spoons from one bar of silver
6" long, wide and "
thick," she explains in her
toft-spoken, feminine voice.

sign and a necklace of delicate
pattern have been achieved by
simply forging silver in this
way.
To much of her work she
adds the glowing color of
enamels some held within out
lines of metal threads or clot
sonne. Contrary to popular be
lief, cloisonne did not originate
in China but with' the early
Mediterranean ' cultures and
was used in Europe sooner
than in the Orient. In her
enamels, Mrs. Heath hat com
bined infinite patience with
her energetic shaping of the
metal. Since the ultimate color
effect is extremely sensitive to
temperature, great care has to
be taken in firing these glazes.
She estimates that one of her
ash trays in the show has been
fired at least 50 times to arrive
at the, desired effect.
Of spe eial interest is a
brooch done in three-dimensional
form with perpendicular
silver plates tied through by
hair-thin wires and glazed in
a dark orange. This viewer
also liked the free flow of
shapes on a large spoon set
with three turquoise stones.
However, the entire collection
is striking and to select any
piece can only be a matter of
one's personal taste.
This duo-show is open to the
public week days from 9 to 4
and will be moved to the Uni
versity Library for Monday
through April SO to make room
for the models of Leonardo Da
Vinci's machines, from the col
lection of the International
Business Machines company.
