  • Hi everyone

    I live in Devon in the UK close to the sea and I love reticulating silver. Having started metalsmithing just over a year ago it's taken me some time to produce pieces that I'm pleased with, but I'm getting there. I usually try to set the pieces with found sea glass which I pick up on my local...

  • Its been forever-New Jewelry

    Hi, Im a long-time lurker here and its been about a year since I last posted a photo. Since then I've been working hard to improve at jewelry fabrication and pictures.

  • Re: Bending half-round wire

    First and foremost, do make sure that your wire is annealed. There have been countless times over the years I've bought wire listed as "dead soft" that arrives no where near that condition. Fortunately it's fairly simple to solve that problem by annealing the wire. It's best to...

  • Stamping Sterling Silver

    How to stamp sterling silver? What tools should i get and what kind of store may carry them tools? I'm thinking of stamping my works with 925 mark so people would be less skeptical whether it's real sterling or not. I'm new at this, so please be gentle :) Thank you!
