Experiment with combining scrap silver and copper into alloys of Shibuichi and Shakudo.  Form these materials into pendant forms known as spiculums.  They are hand fabricated by forming a sheet of silver into a hollow, tapered spear shape. It has a soft twist, giving it a sense of movement.  Learn to patina metal as well in this hands-on class.
