Bid on this handmade Argentium 2" round pendant with Mokume Gane inlay and Amber.

Mokume-Gane is an old Japanese technique of combining different metal sheets. In a controlled heat and pressure environment different metal sheets fuse together but do not completely melt. The result is a block of metal that appears to have stripes. It is then hand-cut to produce desired patterns, nowadays often according to software-guided curves. After the patterns have been cut, the metal block is hammered, forged, and rolled to reduce its thickness. Finally, it is time for the most fun part... shaping the metal into an object of art.
