Description

The Fretz HMR-104 Silversmithing Large Embossing Hammer is used to dome metal by hammering the inside of a piece as the metal is supported by a sand bag or a depression carved into wood. Doming a piece of metal before raising permits greater control, because the shape becomes rigid. Also used to create elevated areas by striking the metal from behind, similar to repousse.
