Elevate your metalwork with this texturing hammer, designed for creating distinctive surface patterns on non-ferrous jewellery metals.

What it does

This double-faced steel hammer imparts controlled textures onto your workpiece. One face features a fine checkered pattern, while the other offers a bold, wide stripe. These impressions are achieved through precise, balanced strikes, ideal for adding depth and character to sheet metal. The precisely machined, hardened steel faces ensure consistent results and durability, even under repeated use on copper, brass, and silver. Its balanced weight distribution minimises fatigue during extended texturing sessions.

How to use it

  • Select the desired texture face for your project.
  • Hold the hammer with a relaxed grip, striking firmly.
  • Clean faces after use to maintain crisp impressions.

Who it's for

An indispensable tool for bench jewellers, silversmiths, and metalsmiths seeking to add unique decorative finishes. It’s also valuable for students and hobbyists exploring repousse and chasing techniques. This hammer offers a faster alternative to hand-engraving for broad textural effects or pairs with forming stakes for detailed work.

Common questions at the bench

What weight hammer should I start with?
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.
