Repousse Work at Robin47's Shop

Robin47's Shop Announcement

Currently the techniques that interest me the most are repousse and chasing. There is something magical about pushing and prodding metal into a new shape.

I hope you discover something about my work that strikes a resonant note.

My art tends to use soft finishes and rich textures. This work is easy to care for. Since oxidation is one of the patinas I use, Some amount of discoloration is often an integral part of the piece. If too much oxidation develops on the surface, simply wipe horizontally a few strokes across the surface with a green and yellow scouring pad, the kind used for dish washing. This was the finishing step to create the satin surface it now has. Caution: do not use Tarnex or similar chemical oxidation removal products on this piece because it will also remove the patina.
Please do not use abrasive materials on Keum Boo. They will damage the surface.

I also do custom work. If you see something here that inspires you but is not quite the thing that you want, contact me and let me make you your dream piece.
