Description
Mastering metal jewelry techniques requires a comprehensive guide. This detailed visual approach covers common processes and methods used in jewelry making today, accompanied by over 250 photographs and drawings that clarify each step.
The book explains techniques for enameling, embossing and engraving, as well as mounting and setting gem stones using various methods such as bezel setting, wire prongs, mixed mount setting, and channel setting. It also introduces contemporary techniques like image transfer and airbrush painting.
Four step-by-step projects are included to demonstrate the techniques described in the book, featuring a painted bracelet, a silver and ivory palm nut pendant, a gold pendant with tourmaline, and brooches with cast metal and airbrushed paint. Suitable for anyone interested in jewelry making or the craft itself.
