How do I forge silver to make jewelry?

It doesn’t look like an easy metal to work with, but silver is actually malleable and offers the opportunity to create unique pieces. “Forging” is an ancient metalsmithing method that allows controlling the shape of silver and other nonferrous metals by hitting the material with a special hammer. The metal needs to be heated with a torch beforehand.
In the image, this one-of-a-kind pendant (for sale online) is forged using the technique described above.

A unique necklace inspired by waves

Spending many hours following dolphins and whales in the wild, I find inspiration for many of my jewelry pieces when I am out on my research boat. This one of a kind necklace, for example, is inspired by wavelets at sunset. The piece, called “ondine e serpentina”, is handcrafted in bronze and reclaimed silver, and finished with a serpentine gemstone. The chain is made of oxidized silver.
