As part of my silversmith residency at Kedleston Hall, the National Trust commissioned two videos produced by filmmaker Ben Wigley. This video is filmed at my workshop studio in the Birmingham Jewellery Quarter. Traditional silversmithing techniques are being demonstrated to show the various stages of the making process to achieve a hand raised silver form.
What a marvelous video! I collect silver and am starting to learn how to make small objects. This was exactly what I hoped to see, the materials, tools necessary to make larger objects! Thank you for this video, absolutely lovely items!
Beautifully made program. The sound of the tools was better than any music. Thank you so much for letting us to see this.🥀
Yes. Such a shame when artists of anglers or whatever "ruin" their videos, but putting noise on top of the authentic sounds, or even instead of.
Silver is amazing to work with!
Very well done and explained. A great video. Thank you very much.
Since learning vessel work in college, I’ve been trying unsuccessfully to source the T stakes I used so I can produce more pieces. But seeing that sizable forms can be created with smaller stakes on extended holders gives me new hope.
Lovely work! I used to manage a shoppe of Georg Jensen here in Southern California. The position had it's perks and I was fortunate enough to be able to visit the "Smithy" in Copenhagen, where I learned much from the artisans in making hollowware. These days, I use stainless steel as my material of preference and leave small hammer marks in my bowls to remind me of Jensen. I subscribed to your channel because I believe I can learn so much more from you! Thanks for the video!
outstanding !!!!
Amazing craftsmanship❤️ One extra small thing I would have loved to see was the jewelers bench they’d set up for her at the museum.😮
OMG, I'm in love! A Vietnamese girl with a British accent!
BrokenRRT hmmmm.... how about ...”OMG, I’m in love! What an artist!” What has her place of birth or an accent got to do with her art and abilities? Seriously 🤬
AND, she is not a girl but a grown up adult who is Master Silversmith

another judgemental Self-righteous bitch, just the world needed right now.
what's wrong with fall in love with a beautiful Vietnamese girl with a charming British accent?
a hypocritical pretentious bitch like you on the other hand...no matter what your abilities are, well.....people don't just ”OMG, I’m in love! What an artist!” you nuts?

Double like!
Thank you for share it, I'm just learning and this is a wonderful help
Hi there, the smooth surface of the metal is achieved through hammering the surface with a smooth, polished planishing hammer. I hope this is helpful to you.
theresa nguyen you should have your stakes polished, so as to give a smoother finish

Hello Teresa I am Portuguese and Gouger also liked a lot of your work is very similar to my kisses from Portugal

BUENAS NOCHES, DESDE PANAMA, EXELENTE SU EXPLICACION, DEBE SER TRADUCIDA AL ESPAÑOL. BENDICIONES. 🤗☀️👍💖
I really enjoy your love of design and of the material, and how articulate you are about your process. I just purchased a couple of stakes and raised my first tumbler, and appreciate your videos, especially since I haven't seen anyone demonstrate this work in the real three-dimensional world. My tumbler seemed a bit lumpy compared to yours...
magic 🥰
This is so inspiring! Thank you for sharing.
Hi Mayerlin, I'm so glad you enjoyed viewing my video, so much so that you are even sharing it with your friends and family! Thank you so much! Love Theresa xx
Oh vô tình gặp dc chị người Việt...hii
I'm hooked on Blacksmithing videos and came across this. Very impressive at the time, energy and focus required to produce these works.
Theresa, what was the motivation to becoming a silversmith? Was your training exclusively in silver or all metals? What do you think are the main advantages of artisans such as yourself over getting something from a factory? I use to be an illustrator and would find hours slip away because I got absorbed in the delight of my work. Does that happen to you?
wow loved your video and your work
Would have loved to see the piece in final form....
Theresa, you just picked up a new subscriber!
can you practice this sort of stuff with brass or copper or are the properties too different ?
Yes you can use copper (much cheaper).Not sure about brass but also gilding metal ( more of the qualities of silver than copper)
@@nickdunbar2967 Brass is to hard for raising.
beautiful work
una artista muy bellas piezas
Keep up the good work! Awesome.
Amazing craftsmanship! Where can I see and purchase your pieces or art?
Yet I’m still don’t understand, why didn’t she heat the metal and straight away put in mould then using press to shape the bow?? Is that much easier and faster rather then hammer and hammer and hammer..
Beautiful.
Супер!
good job love your studio :)
Very beautiful.
Hi miss Theresa,I have found some spoons that has s tear drop shape at the edge & a large handle,The spoon is about 6,inch long,the spoons sizes vary's,from the size of apple seed to peanut seed, Can you please tell me what they are if you can guess thank you.
Dear Theresa. Congratulation for your amazing videos and talent!! May I kindly ask you the thickness of the silver metal sheet used in this video? Thanks in advance and Happy New Year!
Happy New Year Eric. Thank you so much for your encouraging message. I used 1.2mm thickness for the sheet silver for this cup. I hope this is helpful to you 😊
@@TheresaNguyenSilver Thanks a million times, it is very helpful!!!!! Looking forward to your next videos. Cheers.
@@ericfavre1922 Thank you Eric, I am glad this was helpful. I look forward to making more videos in the future 😊
Very interesting work. You are so talented. I was just wondering how do you get the smooth surface of the final product by just polishing it without heat applied?
When trying to make a silver cup what's the best gauge to start with when ordering a silver sheet ? Please
Hi Camron, I would suggest using 1.2mm thickness for the sheet silver. Happy making! Warmest regards, Theresa
Hi nguyen. i just saw your web. they are so awesome and beautiful. I am vietnamese too but so bad that i am not talent like you. i see u using that big flame, oh god, i will be scared to death with any flame or fire. i don't even like to cook using gas also
5% of it is talent, most of it is many mundred hours of practice, no matter what the subject is. "Just" push your limets a little bit, and you can learn to do "anything"
Miss, do you know that until this video, I had yet to see an explanation Why pickling was done? Thank you!
Quinching stope the heat/cools it and pickling cleans it. Remove the askand/or dirt from flame.
This is irany art name called(ghalam zani)and it also goes back 7000years history of this Iranian art
Lovely work! How thick was the silver sheet?
Hi ... Can you teach me ... I am also silver Smith but not an expert
You are a beautiful Lady with a beautiful face and great Artist .
You are a beautiful young talented lady with great skills I really loved your video please keep up the good work
Hi Theresa,
Who are your favorite Silversmiths or style/period ?
thanks for sharing, what a nice accent :)
How do you prevent cracking the edge?
Thank you. What type of wood do you use for the blocking wood/board?
Hi Jenny, My wooden doming block is made from mahogany.
I have used a mahogany block of wood, as this was the largest piece of wood at hand at the time. Hard woods are best like oak or box wood.
Cool stuff :)
Noo…you showed us all the steps, but not the finished piece!! 😢😢
I am also goldsmith I'd like to work with you
Chị là người Việt Nam phải ko ?
Its good
No ear defenders?
Good video
💚💚"Great Video!"💚💚 (Jesimiel Millar Fernåndez)💙💙 2M9
genius
How can we see the finished piece???
This beaker was commissioned by the Goldsmiths' Company and now in a private collection. Some of my finished silver work will be displayed at Collect 2017 in London at the Saatchi Gallery. Hope you can come and visit the Collect 2017 fair next year.
The silver breaker was won in a raffle at a National Trust home, so is now in a private collection. Warmest regards, Theresa
