Jason loves collecting antique goldsmith tools. We have about 6 antique ball-peen hammers which we have restored and use only for making different hammered textures. Hammered rings have a texture from striking it with a hammer repeatedly on the outside surface. The ring above is a yellow gold ring 11mm wide with a pattern made from a 2cm ball-peen hammer from 1920’s. The gold we used contains client material aka recycled gold.
