For silversmiths and jewellers undertaking repoussé and chasing work, this 25mm dome-faced hammer provides controlled, graduated metal movement. Its polished face is designed to form sheet metal smoothly, preventing the harsh marks that can spoil a delicate piece. All our tools are stocked in the UK.
Key features
A 25mm highly polished dome face for creating diffuse, overlapping impressions.
The reverse ball peen is suited for planishing and creating textured finishes.
A shaped wooden handle provides a comfortable grip and natural balance during use.
The polished steel head is securely mounted for reliable, consistent strikes.
Who it's for
Primarily for UK bench jewellers, silversmiths, and coppersmiths engaged in repoussé and chasing. Also a valuable tool for armourers and metal sculptors who require controlled shaping of sheet metal.

For most bench work, 4–8 oz is the sweet spot. Lighter hammers (2–4 oz) suit fine detail and chasing punches; 6–8 oz suits forging and texture work. Avoid anything over 12 oz unless you specifically need a raising hammer.
Can I use this on annealed silver and copper?
Yes — these hammers are designed for non-ferrous metals: silver (sterling, fine, britannia), copper, brass, bronze, and aluminium. The polished face will not transfer marks to clean annealed stock when used correctly. For mild steel work, use a separate hammer.
How should I care for it?
Wipe the face down after each session to prevent any tarnish from work residue marking your next piece. If the head develops nicks, polish them out with fine-grit emery and a buffing mop — a marked hammer face transfers marks to your work.
What is in the box?
One hammer with the head and handle fitted, ready for the bench. Polished faces are protected with a thin oil film — wipe before first use.
