Double-Layered Hammered-Edge Bowl III & IV
Double-Layered Hammered-Edge Bowl III & IV
These double-layered hammered-edge bowls are great for holding tea lights or pillar candles. They are great individually or grouped together as a pair or trio to create a centerpiece on your dinner table, scattered on your mantle or as an addition to your meditation/prayer altar. The possibilities are endless!
They are made from mild steel that I heated in a propane forge until glowing orange. I then formed the metal into these unique shapes using a combination of hammers, tongs, and swage blocks. Each one has been riveted together. After getting the shape just so, I used a wire wheel and grinder to remove all the flakey scale that builds up on the surface through the process. Then finished with a combination of heat and patinas.
