Story behind the piece: I named this box citadel, because it looks strong and able to withstand whatever storms might be raging in the vicinity. In it you can store tea, or whatever you need to keep you strong.

I created the mokume using 28 layers of fine silver and copper, fused in an electric kiln then forged out by hand. The mokume pattern is made by hammering and stamping deeply, then filing the material back smooth. The lid and top were pressed with a hydraulic press as one piece, then separated, fabricated (formed, soldered etc.) along with the sterling body.

Artist Bio: Anne Wolf earned her MFA in Jewelry/Metals at San Diego State University in 1999, and has been teaching since 2003. Wolf has been a presenter for SNAG and taught at many schools across the US. Her mokume gane metalwork is in the permanent collection at the Metals Museum in Memphis, Tennessee and was awarded a Bronze First seat by the NBSK in Japan. Wolf studied under Japanese metalwork masters such as Ford Hallam, Hiroko Sato-Pijanowski, and James Binnion.
