magnus homestead Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Sergio - this is beautiful! Fine work. Is it all done in fabrication? Do you have any photos of the process or could you describe the steps? Thanks for posting this. Magnus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sergio Posted June 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Thanks everybody. I just carve a ring of wax has to sculpture, and a jeweler makes a cast iron has lost wax, directly in silver. At the end, i give a patina to the ring. On the photo, you can see two rings of wax has to sculpture and my favorite tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Smith Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 I try to make a new ring with japanese style. It weighs about 30 g . It's silver with some gold plated on the water lily. Cool ring, a tad heavy for casual wear though. What are the dimensions its hard to tell in some pictures, also what tool is that? A chisel of some kind? Sam.

Hako Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Hi Sergio reading in the carvingpath, I found your beautiful ring. With these engravingtools I carve all my netsuke. I sharpened them to carve on the right and on the left side, so with the two I can always carve with the grain. I like multicolored metall especially with figural themes. I have to do it for the goldsmith I´m working for. Here is a Tanuki teekettlenetsuke with silvertop and rings. Kettle is of iron. a pirat I did wit a coral from Tibet silverring goldearring, the head is of iron I made the pieces of wax , as you do. Your work is very precise and lively. I like it very much. aloa Harald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergio Posted July 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Thank you Harald, i like your work to. I think we are near in the spirit of carving. I like to carve skull and dragon, and your skull is very nice. You work on different supports, what do you prefer ? Have you carve ivory ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hako Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 hi Sergio it seems our carvings are getting wilder, this head of an ORK I made three years ago. Its stagshorn with a heavy missgrowing (?). It looked like a brain so I carved an ugly Ork with two swordcuts on the back one cordhole is square, as if an arrow or so has struck him. Its my personal horrornetsuke. But I like flowers and chubby animals more. In a hurry, Harald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
