Reticulation is a technique by which net-like or wave-like textures are produced on alloys of silver and copper by repeatedly heating the metal sheet until retailer thin layers of pure silver form on the surfaces. Next , the metal is reheated to a temperature which melts the alloy , but since the pure silver layers have a higher melting point they will slump into the molten layer of metal between them in interesting patterns .

Presented in a black recycled card gift box with black flocked foam and courtelle wadding .
