Silver jewelry ..now in my reopened, little "wandsilber" shop on etsy!

a second chance for my tiny "art shop" on etsy.... I didn´d find a suitable place for my silver earrings so far, as they aren't corresponding to my donauluft bead jewelry concept , so I decided to reopen my silver shop to get them presented in a more appropriate way.

voila: some of these are listed....raw, unique jewelry with an industrial impression, mainly made of recycled silver which piles up in my studio.

 my raw silver jewelry is not designed for the opera ball or the white tie invitation, but a cool way to smarten up your every day outfit!

these aren't listed, they are mine,  maybe too raw, but I love this impro touch!

It´s time to recycle some silver scrap!

and this time I tried to make real sheet silver out of my scrap (which almost overstrained my plate roll ).

melting in the charcoal , hammering, intermediate annealing, rolling out repeatedly, and in the end - sheet silver !

The real snowflakes won´t be long in coming... in the meanwhile here are some snowflakes that won´t melt.

studio news - scrap necklace

silver recycling - this time I had fun creating a necklace !

pure silver....

Sticking most of the wires and loops into the melting silver nuggets, I used very little silver solder for this.

                            
It is a short collier around the neck....

                       

                           

...but  can be worn also as a long necklace, which is my favorite styling.

one of a kind - , sculptural and a little bit crazy, .....

Silver nuggets!

Silver recycling :

Thats next!

I heat the silver scrap in the mold with my brazing torch to the melting point.

The charcoal is saving the generated heat very well!

At this point it is possible to shape the little liquid pure silver ball for seconds.....

After solidification the structure of the charcoal is visible on the back.

Beautybath in alum, after soldering silver jump rings onto the nuggets.

....to be continued.....

My creative Space....

Silver recycling!

When I ´m crafting my silver caps, wires and closures some scrap piles up.

I will try to make some "Silver Nuggets" out of it!

This is a piece of charcoal I own for many years.....(what easily can be seen..)

I use carving tools to get a mold . Afterwards the silver scrap will be melted in it.

That´s all for now .....next time I will show the melting process ..

...and of course the finished products..( premised I was successful !)
