New Completed Projects

This week in Metalsmithing Studio we have a few finished projects:


Nanette finished this project leftover from last session: the gorgeous dragonbreath glass cabochon is set in a silver bezel with wire swirls and frame, and a hand-pinned bail. Great work!



Midori constructed this "bow" ring completely by hand. She etched the surface, folded the side bows and the center bow, then soldered them all together and then to the ring shank. Awesome job!!



Kathi made this amazing copper scoop by forming the bowl with hammers, wood balls and a wood dapping block. The stem was made by fold forming first, then hammering the stem into a cylinder with a forming die. Hand riveted, it has a wonderful patina and is ready to use!



Angie's boulder opal ring has an unusual lower shape but was soldered expertly- great job!
