Brass Stampings with Soldered Metals

The duotone metal trend has been heavily on the rise this past year. What isn’t there to love about it! I am especially attracted to the raw look of melted solder and brass. Here are some of my favorites.

3 Divas Studio’s pieces are just so awesome! She has a great eye for design and composition. Her pieces are unique and unexpected, a quality this artist strives for with each piece.

Terri Murphy at 1921 Designs is doing some really fun work. I like seeing how she is metal stamping right into the melted solder.

Gerry Lee Cruthird of Clay Designs by Glee isn’t just doing clay these days! Looks like the metal smith workshop she took in New Orleans has inspired her to create these great pieces!

Maggie at Metallography made these great soldered pieces.

Here is a tutorial from I Can’t Stop Making This. Although she isn’t embedding metal stampings, she is rubber-stamping into the solder. Way cool.
