Wedding rings MOKUME GANE (Aros de matrimonio con la técnica MOKUME GANE)

Good morning, this time I show you how to make a couple of marriage rings with the technique called Mokume Gane. MOKUME GANE is a Japanese technique used 300 years ago for making swords, MOKUME means “wood grain“ and GANE means “metal.“ The name probably was coined because the finished product looks similar to laminated wood. Mokume gane consists of metal sheets made into a laminated block.. The first step is to make a solid block or billet of metal by submitting the sheets to intense heat in a reduction atmosphere under pressure so that the metals join together without the use of solder. For this we prepare fine silver an copper sheets, The amount of copper added to the billet changes the fusing points so that they are all very close to one another, no matter what precious metal they contain. Their hardness is then also similar, and once the sheets fuse they are compatible when forged and rolled. ( Buenos días, en esta ocasi&#
