Intro
Chasing, a technique based on the plasticity of metals, has been used since ancient times. It reveals the flexible nature of the metal, which takes on volumes, reliefs and textures under the patient work of the hammers and stakes. Skilled craftsmen from all eras and all continents have taken advantage of the ductility of gold, silver, copper or iron to bring out various decorations and figures.
