I'm a concept artist studying more on armor designs and filigree, thank you for choice in maintaining traditions and keeping history alive, without this, we would never improve!
hi Dominik. I use powder solder, specific for filigree. Controlling the fire so the piece doesn't melt one learns like other soldering, by practice and feeling. thank you for the comment and appreciation of my work.
Thanks you so much for this video. Please continue to make them. Those are not the earrings she made. The 1/2 loops don't show on final product only filigree wire is seen. Where is the final product she made please.
Thank you for sharing your skills...beautiful work...just wandering what is the light yellow liquid you have next to you when soldering...is it solder in a special liquid or oil of some kind...
bbozzana thank you for your reply...is the borax in water or any special liquid...i have just started silversmithing as a hobby so learning from you all via youtube...thanks again for sharing...
@@amymohanty1045 its not borax. she meant that its flux, used LIKE borax. there are several clear yellow liquid fluxes on the market. the liquid fluxes are a little easier for filigree as they dont obscure the joint like borax based fluxes can.
@@catzkeet4860 thank you for helping with info.... There is also a yellow powdered flux for filigree and with that one you need to dissolve it in distill water Old masters also did the following:mixing solder with powder borax (white) and then before soldering dipping the filigree in water and then putting the mixture on
Very interesting piece of history. You're work is beautiful, I'd love to do that. I'm a welder, so I get to do things on a much larger scale than this ♡
Too many questions unanswered and unable to see clearly what and how it's done. Your talent is obvious but unless methods are shared, to me this is just another utube ego boost. Oh nice music.
