Gurteen, the raising of a modern artifact by Nile Fahmy.
This video takes you through the process of hammering a seamless vessel from a flat sheet of copper. The technique I use is called Angle Raising. The shape of the vessel and the patterns hammered on the surface were chosen to mirror my own heritage, as I am half Irish and half Egyptian. It is finished with a burnished copper patina and 23K gold leaf interior. Available for sale.
