Each piece is individually made through a series of different techniques such as forging, stone setting, soldering, sawing, roller printing, chasing and repousse.

Chasing and repousse is a traditional art. It was first used by the Egyptian's 5000 years ago. Chasing begins with making your own tools. These tools are used to chase lines, surface finishing, and raising the metal for a 3 dimensional look. With these techniques flowers, animals, sealife, etc may be captured in jewelry.
