Hand Made Jewellery: Techniques Stuart uses simple, portable equipment that is easy to learn
and use. A foot bellows system is used for soldering and a wide
range of cutting, filing and polishing tools – hand and
electric – help create unique, handcrafted pieces.
The jewellery is often embellished with intricate designs using braided wire or granulation, not generally used by Western artisans. Hand Made Jewellery: MaterialsStuart uses precious, semi-precious and agatized stones sourced from all the continents. Shiney Finery designs also use polar bear teeth, walrus tusk, bone, turquoise, pearls, shark teeth, fossil and petrified wood. Stuart works in many forms of silver and in all karats of gold.
