closed Hammered Finish Hand Poured Silver


Recommended Posts

Been playing around with a "hammered finish" today. 

Nuts and bolts of a hammered finish is you whack the silver bar with a a ball hammer for a while until it is covered in dents! But, those dents make an awesome pattern. 

So, after much annoyance (probably) to my neighbours I have created the first two hammered BYB silver bars. 

This is number H001 (which has already been sold)

899591689_H001(1).thumb.jpg.f533575f808810e88bece402973ed399.jpg280175483_H001(2).thumb.jpg.c7f9b0b3a7c225fd28a45f664c82fcaf.jpg

These hammered finish bars will carry an ongoing serial number starting with "H" so these two are H001 and H002. They have also been treated with "liver of sulphur to blacken the lettering and bring out the finish on the texturing. 

H001 is sold already but H002 is available!

Hammered Bar "H002" - 3.62 ozt - £89

These bars will be submitted for hallmarking in about 1 weeks time and will be ready for dispatch in about 3 weeks time. 

Payment is inclusive of postage for UK customers. International customers will need to pay +£5 for standard shipping or +£10 for tracked shipping. 

Happy to combine with any other BYB orders and/or group orders. If you do this I will take off £2.50 for combining postage. 

Payment via Banks Transfer or paypal.

It looks great bud, did you use a penetrating hammer to achieve this? I love it and I think it's another skill your on the way to mastering. 

 

I used a cheapo ball hammer I bought off Amazon.
