What kinds of artwork are made from metal?

Key Term Repousse- a metalworking technique in which a sheet of metal has a design worked into it by pushing the metal in and out from both sides using a variety of tools.

Key Term Chasing- the pushing in of metal on the front of the design.

 Chasing is the opposite of Repousse.  (Repousse=Push out on back)  (Chasing=Push in on front)  Metal smiths use both of these techniques together on their pieces.

 The metal is stretched so the sheet remains intact with no loss of material.  In French repousse means “pushed out”.
