Category: Jewellery Making Tools

On thin-gauge silver and gold, most hammers are simply too much tool. At 2 oz (57g), this ball peen delivers taps, not blows — enough to planish a small surface flat with the polished face or lay fine texture with the round peen, without stretching or bruising the sheet. Where it sits among the bench's other hammers is covered in our guide to choosing a jeweller's hammer.

The steel faces are polished so they pass no marks to soft metal, and the smooth, contoured wooden handle balances the light head naturally in the hand. Keep the faces bright, dressing out any nick before it prints itself onto your work.

  • Dual-head design with one flat face for planishing and one rounded peen for texturing.
  • A 2oz (57g) head weight, ideal for controlled strikes on delicate components.
  • Polished steel striking faces help to minimise marring on soft precious metals.
  • Smooth, contoured wooden handle provides a comfortable and balanced grip.

Who it's for

A core bench tool for UK jewellers, silversmiths, and craftspeople who require a light touch. Also suitable for fine model making and detailed metalwork where controlled, delicate forming is essential.

Brian P. ★★★★★

I’ve been using this hammer for shaping small bezels and it’s precise without leaving dents. The polished face is so smooth on its first contact that I’m getting a better finish than with my heavier tools.

Ryan B. ★★★★★

The 2 oz head is light enough that I can actually feel the metal move under each tap instead of just whacking it flat. The wooden handle gives a nice, secure grip even after an hour of work on a silver pendant.

Brian ★★★★★

The polished face is perfect for gently planishing thin silver without stretching the metal. I love how light and balanced this tiny hammer feels in my hand.
