Workshop
limited to guild members only. To
join, please visit their website.
Registration
information for this workshop will be available through
MASSC later this summer.
Learn
the high relief hammered techniques of chasing and repoussé,
used by the ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Celts, and
which is little known in the West. Participants will
create at least 2 pieces suitable for pins or pendants
while learning the secrets of achieving exquisite detail
and unsurpassed depth.
No
tool making required! Victoria will provide sets of
tools for use during the workshop that were Swiss machine
replicated from her own. She will also provide information
on tools making for students interested in making their
own tools and stamps, but the majority
of class time will be devoted to doing repoussé.
Victoria’s work in this technique has been featured
in many books and magazines, including Metalsmith,
Jewelry Artist, and Nancy Megan Corwin’s
Chasing & Repoussé, and as the
newest instructional DVD.
