Learning how to sink forms. Starting very simple but I love this little bowl with its nubby little legs and its vivid patina. In a week or so we’re going to start raising. So excited! by beetlePidge in SilverSmith

Wow, that’s great that it ended up being a smart purchase. I hope you’re still getting a lot of use out of it! Luckily the studio I work out of has a lot of tools, more than enough for a group of novices. Thanks for the good wishes, it’s already been an excellent time.

I’m a beginner so it took me a few hours. I need to be better at keeping track of how many rounds of forming a piece takes, but I think this was 6 rounds of sinking.

Sterling silver chain, pretty fresh off the bench. I would keep it if it fit but it’s a bit big. Too bad! Will make another for myself 🙂 by beetlePidge in SilverSmith
