You know what you want to create

Maybe you have an array of repousse tools by other people or maybe you’re looking at all the sets out there and are confused.

Maybe you try tool after tool, but the tips tear through the delicate sheet metal, slide and skate across its surface, or create a rough and clumsy pattern.

There is a better way (and it’s a lot more fun)!

When students ask for my recommendation on repoussé and chasing tools, without hesitation, my response is ‘The set of 8 Eastern Repoussé Chasing Tools designed by Victoria Lansford’. I love how versatile they are, comfortable and lightweight, and the results are unbeatable. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

The Making of Victoria Lansford’s Eastern Repoussé Tool Sets


Chase, repoussé, texture, and create relief high or low in intricate detail.


The tools can be held with a more relaxed grip, which is much easier on your hands.

Holding the Large Line Tool

Hold them at the neck, between the thumb and first 2 fingers. No matter the size of one’s hands, this gives enough clearance to hammer without hitting knuckles. Holding the tool at the neck keeps the tool from skating or skidding across the metal. 

Guaranteed for 5 years under normal repoussé use.

Victoria’s Eastern Repoussé Tools are packaged in a reusable container.

Sold as a set only. Not sold individually.
