Etching a silver pendant

Etching is done by removing the upper surface of a silver sheet by using acids. By covering certain parts of the silver sheet by a protective lacquer, you can create drawings in the silver.

We will take a look at the different ways of etching. You will learn how to saw forms out of a silver sheet, prepare it with lacquer to obtain the desired drawing and to finish the jewel after the acid did it's part of the job.

There is one sheet of silver included in the price.
