nice work on the leaves, that's something I mean to try out soon too... they are iron? and I guess hammered against some kind of mold?

No, i cut them from sheet metal, some are bronze sheets. Then used a cross pean hammer to texture them on my anvil. To get the main vains i used some repousse tools and some heavy tin for backing to support the leaves while i hammered the vains in. no molds, just hammer and tooling.

Seeing your work makes me want to start learning respousse! I've been wanting to learn the technique to include with our pierced and hand engraved jewelry. This is so beautiful!!!! :worship:
