Every unique project reinforces the techniques - create the stunning Bubbles Brooch by hollow-forming silver, adding pearls, and attaching pin findings. Or, make a handsome lapel pin by cuttlefish-casting 18-carat gold; then set a brilliant sapphire on the textured surface. Each chapter features a substantial gallery of contemporary pieces.
