Flat & Cross Peen Hammer — Goldsmith & Silversmith Forming, Repoussé, Wooden Handle
Two of the most-used hammer faces on one handle. The flat, polished circular face planishes and forms without marring; turn the head and the cross-peen drives metal directionally — drawing it out along a defined line, setting a crease for repoussé, moving silver where you want it and nowhere else. If you're assembling a first kit, our guide to choosing your first jeweller's hammer explains why this pattern earns its place early.
The steel head has a black-finished body with both striking faces polished, and it is securely mounted so the balance stays true through controlled strikes. The straight hardwood handle gives a secure grip and absorbs vibration. Suited to silver and other non-ferrous work, from students learning forming to working benches.
