Exam piece: Silver Bracelet
This piece has been in the making since September of 2019, and completed early 2020. This project had its ups and downs during the production but I had a blast working at it from start to finish.
I got to present it the 24th of January of 2020, and I passed my exam with it too. officially making me a Assistant Goldsmith.
This one isn’t for sale, but if you are interested in a similar piece I can always make another one!
“This bracelet made me pass my exam, Officially giving me the title of Assistant Goldsmith”
I was tasked to make a piece of jewelry containing at least 3 things I learned during my education. I ended up putting 7 techniques in it. some bigger then the other. The techniques being:
Making of the bracelet bands
The Lock.
Smelting my own silver.
Making my own silver tube/pipe.
making my own Hinges.
Riveting the hinges in place. using a ‘‘invisible ‘‘ rivet
using a stone-setting to set a coin in place.
