Since the early 1970's John and Linda Whitney have been using the traditional methods of metalsmithing to present their own interpretations of objects of adornment. Whether it is a bold forged link necklace or an intricate pair of musician earrings, their work carries an integrity to the elements of design that the metals demand. The techniques of forging, soldering, texturing, casting, welding, cold connection, corrugating, and fold forming are used to reveal the desired personality of each piece.
