KIPKALINKA: A piece of jewelry is created - the forging ring

KIPKALINKA

stands for handcrafted silver in combination with different materials - Mokume Gane, precious stones, glass, but also everything else that I think is interesting and inspires me. Clarity and simple elegance are the paradigms of my designs.

the greatest value I place on quality craftsmanship and uniqueness. Concerning production, the most important thing to me is that the customer will receive at the end of a piece of jewelry is absolutely meets their needs and fits 100% to him.
jewelry is in my opinion not an end in itself but should serve the personality of the wearer or the wearer to emphasize and highlight their uniqueness. The profession of goldsmith've learned I need to take to create things to which we will survive. The training I have successfully completed at the vocational school for glass and jewelry in Kaufbeuren-Neugablonz. Meanwhile, I live and work in Leipzig. Seemed to me immediately to make independently according to the teaching me something daring, so I started to study art history and work as a goldsmith or a companion.

Currently I have my workshop at home and finished there whenever I have time, unique jewelry that I sell on DaWanda and friends. My plan is integral to the study with other jewelers together a community workshop to open up shop u and there to give goldsmithing courses. But I also collect already hard tool ...

Here's a look in my living room and workshop:

The larger bits, such as roller, lever shears and polishing motor have
found elsewhere in the house their home.

Here's a little insight into my goldsmith's workshop: results
I'll show you how a small wrought little ring that gives it in my DaWanda-Sho p in any width and size.

When the ring in a certain Size and width is to be made, one must be clear about the length and thickness of the wire required. One can calculate that. In most cases, but it does back on previous experience. I forge the ring from round wire which is different then any sharp edges.

The wire is bent together and filed the edges just to shock, then soldered.
is then finished off the solder joint (with the file, free of excess solder).

The structure is directed around with the nylon hammer on the lock ring.

The ring is much smaller than it should be, because the material stretches to the forge.
The ring is wider, thinner and larger.
It is thus forged, unless he has the right size.
(measured between, again and again.)

The edges are rounded, so he is comfortable with.
inside and on the sides it is sanded. Exterior is polished only careful
maintained so that the beautiful wrought particular structure.
