Synopsis

Discover how to create easy pieces from using common materials found in your home and then move on to more advanced techniques with brass, copper and silver. These designs are inspired by the steampunk movement, a style that combines technology and romance – in essence, punk with a Victoriana feel. Think vintage watch parts, capturing the theme of time travel, combined with brass, copper, fabric scraps and antique paper, for unusual jewellery that is elegant yet quirky. Each project has clear step-by-step photography to guide you, and a full techniques section explains all you need to know about working with metal, from hammering to metal texturing and finishing techniques, such as polishing and adding a patina to create an aged effect.
