Custom Handmade and Cold Forged Jewelry
As a Master Goldsmith, Thomas Anselment constructs structurally sound jewelry that is much more durable by using a material's ability to be work hardened. Cast jewelry is sold by most other jewelers for a number of economical reasons. Other jewelers not only use "casting" because it reduces labor cost since cast items can be mass produced but also because cast metals are also more porous on a molecular level, thus reducing the weight of the cast piece and the cost of the final product. In contrast, Thomas Anselment makes jewelry by hand apply applies a combination of cold forging techniques through annealing and work hardening. Cold forged precious metal is denser and more durable. It will wear less and last for generations to come.
