Kyanite Necklace
by Maura Nicholson on Jul.01, 2010, under Handmade Jewelry
kyanite necklace
I bought this kyanite ‘slice’ because it looks so beautiful, I wasn’t really sure what I was going to do with it! I decided to set it in silver but it was a truly awkward shape so i added some keshi pearls to the setting. It looked pretty good so I then had to decide what next to do. I thought a double strand of silver chain,keshi pearl,apatite and faceted black onyx would look good but it needed something else? 12 strands of silver chain,apatite,keshi pearl,faceted black onyx and really gorgeous black opals, all handing from the pendant of the necklace, did I mention that it became a necklace?

Keum Boo – fusing 24k gold to fine silver

Milwaukee
I recently attended the Bead and Button show in Milwaukee, WI. I learned the technique of Keum Boo.
Keum Boo is an ancient technique which fuses 24k gold to fine silver. It is an ancient Korean gilding technique. Pure precious metals like gold and silver have similar anatomic structures and, therefore, can be bonded.
The fine silver or sterling silver which has been depleted creating a layer of fine silver, must be heated up to 500-700 degrees fahrenheit for the gold to create a bond. Then you burnish the gold to the silver to create a complete bond.
The piece in the picture was oxidized to allow for even more contrast but it is equally as pretty without the oxidation.
Keum boo is a great way to add value and depth to your silver pieces.
