THE TECHNIQUES
Traditional silversmithing
Silversmithing is all what could be done with silver (jewelry, ornaments, utensils) it involves various processes such as sawing, filing, hammering, dabbing, forming, stamping, rolling soldering
and finally cleaning and polishing
Hoda designs and finishes all the products.
Lost wax method
The lost wax is an ancient jewelry technique.
It is the process by which a duplicate sculpture (silver, gold, brass, or bronze) is cast from an original sculpture. Intricate works can be achieved by this method. The item is first modeled in wax, which is soft and easily manageable. The wax is lost upon casting.
Twisted wire method
Wire wrapped jewelry is formed by wrapping flexible wire around a gemstone (or even around itself) in patterns and twists. When a stone is used, the wire creates a casing so that it doesn't fall out.
We use copper or gold-filled silver wires for these
beautiful earrings.
