Keum-boo is an ancient Korean technique where
24-karat gold foil is bonded to silver or other metals. This produces a rich gold color, while using very little foil. The simplicity of this technique makes it a fun, inexpensive way to add gold to your work.

This second volume provides step-by-step instructions for more advanced jewelry making techniques including roller printing and hollow form construction. Learn complex keum-boo procedures including bonding gold to a three-dimensional, textured surface, making repairs and much more. Running time: 90 min.
