In French, they say repousse, they both mean to push. Metal embossing to make a riza or oklad, is an art form that has been around for centuries. Riza or oklad is a term used to describe the beautiful metal covers originally applied to icons so they could be protected and transported. Embossing metal imparts luster, and radiance, to an otherwise flat appearance, adding intriguing dimension, texture, and value. The artful practice of repousse and egg tempera has quietly endured for centuries. Lavish embellishments of silver, gold, and jewels to accent the beauty of icons was a common practice in Russia around the 18th century.
