Throwing out a few questions to get us started. #SmithSky #Silversmith #Goldsmith #Metalsmith
How're things? What have you been working on this week?
Are you having any conversations with your customers about the volatile metal prices? What is their feedback?
Is in-person doing better than online?
Trying to finish up a commission piece today. There will be two oval opals in the settings. #metalsmith #jeweler #silversmith #smitthsky

Image of a hand and forearm resting on a jewelers bench with tools and materials and wearing a bracelet made from sterling silver, consisting of three slim silver bands which hold a large oval stone.
Similar image as the first picture, but showing the whole scene from the left side
Here's a bracelet I made to order - well outside my usual work but so much fun and taught me a lot!

Image of a silver arm cuff consisting of two strips of silver joined at the ends to form a point with a center piece of a pagan goddess figure and two lizards facing her from either side.
Same arm cuff as the first picture, but shown from the side
Image of a person wearing the arm cuff on their arm
Another image of the person wearing the arm cuff, shown from a different angle
I've been reminded to post some of my work so I'll do this on this thread and just randomly add more...
Let's start with this:
It's an arm cuff I made with pieces from a school project, involving casting, forging and a lot of silver.

A question for the #Silversmith #Goldsmith #Metalsmith types, do you have a signature style? Do you feel like people can see something you've made and recognise it as one of yours? Is that important? Ok, that's three questions lol.

A question for #SmithSky, do you have a go-to resource for help identifying stones? I have a few that I didn't keep great records for when I got them, and I think I know what they are, but sometimes it can be hard to be sure. #Silversmith #Goldsmith #Metalsmith #HandmadeJewellery #HandmadeJewelry

Kind of missing my little swooping swallow... there are few things I regret selling, but this is one of those instances.

I’ve been thinking, could we do with a #SmithSkyHour on here? On a Sunday evening perhaps? Not for promoting, there are other hashtags for that, but for networking, sharing what we’re up to, building community? For #Goldsmith #Silversmith #Metalsmith #SmithSky peeps?
Aquaprase restock. Beautiful hues of green brown and milky white make a beautiful and unique mix of earthy tones in each piece. ✨️ #crystaltok #wirewrappedjewelry #silversmith
I love when Nell's designs are not quite symmetrical.

Ethiopian opal facets catching the light from every angle. Soft flashes, shifting color, and that unmistakable glow opals are known for. Each one is completely unique. #opal #silversmith #jewelrymaking
A silver chain on a white piece of paper.
People who know about this sort of thing, what would you call this type of chain? I’ve had it since the 80s.

Image of computer controlled programmable kiln controller for lost wax casting burnout. Features a touchscreen LCD panel to start/stop and manage burnout.
Images is of a computer controlled kiln controller and a Neycraft brand manual temperature controlled kiln.
I built a new kiln controller. This time with touchscreen display. This is the 3rd kiln controller I've built. Same Neycraft manual kiln for ~30 years. Need to remove plastic film and finish screwing together, but test fire was 💯 #lostwaxcasting #jewelrymaking #silversmith #metalsmith #goldsmith

A domed and split piece of copper, held over the offending steel die.
Gahh! I’m trying to get an impression from a die that’s deeper than I’m used to, in my hydraulic press, and the metal keeps splitting. Any ideas?
