Granulation is a technique whereby the smith heats a silver (or gold) wire to form a ball, then cuts and solders these handmade balls into decorative, elaborate patterns. This technique has been widely used since pre-Roman times and continues today in many cultures around the world.
Jane Diaz, based in NYC, has been collaborating with Nepalese silversmith for 30 years. From blocks of silver and gold they mill the metals to plates and wire and build it from scratch. "I've loved working in this place with these people. My mission is to keep these crafts alive and to bring to you a unique product born of their time honored traditions and all the varied inspirations of my own journey".
