Home Precious Metals

Hand poured silver piece I recently acquired.

I have a friend on Instagram and this was designed for his Chihuahua "Famous Seamus". The designer does them to order using the original mold. No idea how many have been made. Interesting and unique. I guess that's the "art" of this area of precious metals. Even using the same mold, the silver is going to react differently each time. The business is Jacob's Engraving and his IG name is Silverstackaholic. Really happy with this one and I thought it was appropriate to post tonight since the Westminster Dog show started today! :)

    This is my hand pour. I call it " lost in the forest". Kudos to your friend.

    Very nice!
    @ricko the chain is around the dogs neck. His nose is just under the “F”. His eye is in the center of the round. Kinda like those pictures you have to stare at for a bit to see the subject.

    Thanks! 2 oz. I appreciate @MsMorrisine outlining the rest of his features. I have seen a couple others and the ears are more defined on one of them but you can't see the chain around his neck as clear as on this one. As I said....I'm guessing due to the process to create these, each one comes out different. Thanks for the replies everyone!: :)
