[Jewelry making - Article 00142] - [Orchid] Anticlastic forming in the studio

========[ Invite a Friend - http://www.ganoksin.com/invite.htm  ]========

    I recently saw a sterling bracelet that was so beautiful that I
    would like some information on its construction. 

    The bracelet was an anticlastic design, with the sides winged as the
    metal thinned. 

    My question is: is it possible to construct something like this
    without heavy machinery? If so, what are the basics I would need?
    Are there any books specific to this? 

Thanks so much in advance.
