Category: Jewellery Making Tools

A light hammer for shaping wire, doming discs and laying decorative texture into non-ferrous metal. At 4 oz (113g), the head has enough mass to move metal yet stays light enough for accurate, low-fatigue work — a sensible weight if you are choosing your first jeweller's hammer.

The flat face planishes; the ball peen textures and rivets. Both faces are polished steel, so the surfaces meeting your metal stay clean, and the head is securely mounted on a smooth, shaped hardwood handle with black-finished cheeks. Wipe the faces after use — any nick or blemish a hammer face picks up prints straight back into your work.

  • Dual-head design with a flat face for planishing and a ball peen for texturing.
  • 4oz / 113g head provides sufficient mass for forming whilst remaining light for control.
  • Polished steel faces on both the peen and the flat head for clean metal contact.
  • Smooth, shaped hardwood handle provides a comfortable and secure grip.
  • Securely mounted head with black-finished cheeks for durability.

Who it's for

An everyday hammer for bench jewellers, silversmiths, and coppersmiths working with precious and non-ferrous metals. Also suited for craft workers and model engineers who require a lightweight hammer for delicate forming and riveting tasks.

Abigail N. ★★★★★

The ball peen end is perfect for adding small stipple textures to copper sheets without distorting the shape. Feels well-balanced even for longer shaping sessions, and the wood handle fits my hand nicely.

Ella ★★★★★

I was worried it might be too heavy for delicate silver work, but the 4 oz head is perfectly balanced for both hammering texture and light doming. The wooden handle feels comfortable even after an hour of shaping wire.

Sebastian ★★★★★

This little hammer is perfect for my wire-wrapping projects—the 4 oz head is light enough for precise control but still drives texture into the metal beautifully. I love how the wooden handle fits my hand, and the ball peen end adds just the right decorative finish. It’s made doming discs a breeze w
