Working with 18KT and 22kt Gold and Silver Bi-Metal
This 3 session virtual class inspires you to work with gold and not break the bank! Bi-metal is a laminate of 18KT or 22KT gold on top of sterling silver. It gives the appearance of a high carat gold sheet without the cost.
Bi-metal sheet is an ideal product for jewelers who require karat gold accents. It consists of a layer of 18 or 22 karat gold bonded to a layer of sterling silver. The karat gold layer can be engraved, gouged, roll printed, or removed by any method to expose the sterling silver layer underneath, to create interesting surface embellishments and patterns. It can be formed, soldered to other metals and have Keum-boo applied to it. A versatile and wonderful way of adding gold to your work without incurring the cost of a solid gold sheet. The goal of this class is to use 18KT bi-metal in a variety of ways to create new work with bits of gold!!
This three-week virtual class will cover the basics of working with bimetal, designing, texturing, soldering to other metals, forming and more!
