Synopsis
Chasing and repousse are methods of embellishing metal objects that have been in use for millennia. With the use of punches and hammers, a wide range of items from delicate jewellery, such as earrings, to pieces of monumental sculpture can be adorned using these techniques. The book provides clean and practical instruction that will be of use to both beginners and the more practised craftsperson. Highly illustrated, the book gives a clear idea of how these methods can be used for a wide range of items.
