Keum Boo is the ancient Korean technique of attaching 24 karat gold
foil to another pure metal such as fine silver. The gold is attached
through a process called diffusion bonding and is accomplished using a
combination of heat and pressure. Low-tech and immediately gratifying,
this class shows students how to add another dimension to their
pieces. This intensive one-day-workshop includes instruction in silver
depletion, gold foil manipulation, gold burnishing and forming the
metal after gold is applied. A material fee of approximately $150 for
24K gold foil and sterling silver will be added to the class fee. This
material fee is based on the market price of silver and gold and may
change. Supplies must be ordered in advance, so registration for this
workshop will close at the end of the day on October 8. Code: JWY 09
