Impression Dies
This is our one-stop shop for all of our Impression Dies!
Many of these are original, hand-carved hubs we're using to make your impression dies, and they may break. If a hub breaks, it will no longer be available.
Impression Dies are used to create a fully three dimensional piece of jewelry. These dies will give you amazing detail using flat sheet or small ingots of metal. They are best used with urethane, paper, or an aluminum force that pushes the sheet into the die. Please check out the videos on our YouTube channel to learn all about impression dies!
