DESCRIPTION

John specializes in the Japanese metalsmithing technique of mokume-gane, which produces a mixed-metal laminate often resembling wood grain. Although first developed in 17th century Japan to create elaborate decorative sword fittings, the mokume-gane procedure now appears primarily in jewellery and hollowware. Through the combination of various metals such as gold, silver, brass and copper, infinite colourful patterns are possible.
