This looks like a tedious process. You must have such patience. Beautiful results 😃

[@starvingwerewolf]

I'm looking to start doing this. I live in canada. Do you have any ideas where I can get supplies?

[@coffeeisthepathtovictory1290]

22 gauge 24k gold wire looks good, the standard

[@sushilkumar5100]

It is called bidri art in India .This art is thousand years old

[@DalePWhyte]

Okay... so how do I pre cut the metal and do the teeth?

[@nothingnewtome1]

How do you finish it to make it look good?

[@eternalspring1034]

Groves and then an undercut ,I'm going to attempt the engraving with a fiber laser and inlay with sterling silver wire. Whats your opinion?

[@jessiejenkins6664]

Just looking to confirm methods for my own workings, does creating small pockets in the inlay channel provide a easy way of getting 24k to hold to .999 silver rings

[@albanfisher6857]

What to did you use for the engraving??

[@nikhi1chavan]

This technique is good but it need more gold since its hammered and half of gold is inside.
In India we use thin wire without hammering

[@sushilkumar5100]

That’s Indian art bidri work..

[@dusanstanic1462]

How to make that undercut? Is that called “dovetail”? Thanks

[@JanHendrikViljoen]

The undercut is done with gravers. It is just like a dovetail.

[@dusanstanic1462]

Jan Hendrik Viljoen thanks Jan. One more question, what is the best to use for wider surfaces like watch bezel for example or center links of the watch bracelet?

[@stuartturner1315]

Is this an expensive thing to learn?

[@80sMesteryMan]

What is the other metal you using its silver or steel

[@Gripco1]

How is the undercutting done? Please? Or is there another video?

[@tolgagulkaya4379]

[@tolgagulkaya4379]

[@leonu2435]

Roland baptiste has a video of how to do the under cutting

[@leonu2435]

Tolga Gulkaya watch master engraver tv he would show you the graver size and how to do it even the wire size

[@tolgagulkaya4379]

[@flyingcheff]
