Pewter Embossing combines the antique art metal
techniques known as chasing and repoussé-the modelling or
embossing of thin, malleable sheets of metal with hand held
tools to create a 3-dimensional decorative design.
Modern metal manufacturers have created pliable types of
metal sheet or foil perfectly suited for the modern crafter to
engrave, raise or emboss with basic tools giving their
artwork volume and texture.
One of the great things about metal embossing is that you
can keep it as simple or detailed as you want, making it an
approachable medium to learn.
With a few simple tools, a small tray as workspace and the
rich lustre of pewter sheet you can easily create beautiful art.
