This great copper and sterling neck collar has been formed using a method called anticlast. The piece was cut out, sawn into a wave design, then annealed, and then hammered into a wooden form to give it a rounded form on the inside next to the neck. Then I used a chasing hammer to form it around another wooden form. Spots of Fine Silver were soldered on, and it has been finished to a 1200 grit smoothness. It's marked DHT 43 with a cross on the outside of one open end.
Pieces like this take several days of forming and finishing. This measures 13 1/2" with a 2 1/2" opening. The center measures 1 1/4" and a depth of 1/2"

20 gauge brass anticlast bracelet with a By Pass design. To me it has a very Arts and Crafts feel to it.
| 
146
This started as a flat piece of brass 7" by 1 1/2" wide that I drew a design on, annealed, quenched in pickle, sawed out, and sanded.
| 
147
I used a cross peen hammer to mark a design on the down side, and then annealled it again, because the marking work hardened it.
| 
148
I then used a nylon hammer and fammered it down into a curved out channel in a piece of wood until it started to round the inside and stretch the outside.
|
149
After annealling it a few more times, I held the two ends with my one hand and hammered with the other making sure that the inside was staying round and free of ridges. I burnished the inside of the top gave it a final sanding with 4000 grit paper, buffed and polished it.
"You are amazing Dinah!"

3 strand glass pearl necklace with wired focal plack. I cut out a 1 1/2" square out of brass, drilled holes for the strands and for the wiring of the beads. I then sawed out a matching back, with tabs. After I finished the wiring on of Czech beads, vintage beads, real pearls, leaves, garnets, and Swarovski Margaritas, and black diamond beads, I placed the back over it and clamped down the tabs to cover the wiring. Length of necklace is 24" 25", 26" and the focal part measures 2" by 2 3/4".

Re-do of a copper over tin bracelet made for my customer in IL. She bought it off Ebay and hated it. There were bezel set plastic oval 'stones' on the 3 middle panels, it was dingy and nasty and the bezels were riveted on so they stuck up when you had the bracelet on. I drilled a hole on either side of the one left by the rivet, and wired in rough turquoise for her and polished it up.
