We free our jewelry from secret compartments in abandoned ruins on forbidden planets far from our solar system. Protected by dangerous mechanisms or unsolvable puzzles that long extinct races have devised to prevent their treasures from falling into the wrong hands. We dig up old maps, search for artifacts, translate inscriptions on rare relics and put all these clues together to track down those secret places that contain magical treasures. Heirlooms from great emperors, jewelery from queens from entire planetary empires, decorations from great women warriors who have conquered entire solar systems.
Well. Sort of. At least we imagine such wild stories when we create the designs for our jewelry. We want our pieces to radiate a mysterious story and look as if they were thousands of years old and out of this world. In fact, we create our designs by 3D scanning odd shapes or strange organic objects. We add detail and features to these models through digital sculpting on the computer. The design is then 3D printed and electroformed with a heavy layer of copper. If the design calls for it, we electroform another layer of silver over the copper. We use all kinds of gemstones and other peculiar materials to finish the piece. Finally we have several weathering routines to make the piece look like it is old and not from this planet. This spaced-out jewelry workflow ensures pieces that are guaranteed to be unique and one of a kind.

Hello,
How to make your own nickel/copper additive or brightener

Unfortunately i cant help you with that. I buy all my solutions and additives premade.

Love this one. Only video I found which covers this topic. Quick question: Can I just leave my anodes inside the electrolyt? And close it because I have not another container which is big enough.

[@xeno_arch9887]

HejHej ... as i mentioned in the Video it is not advisable to leave the unused anodes in the electrolyte for a long time. The Electrolyte - acid that is - will eat up the anode even if there is no voltage or current present. This will saturate your electrolyte with copper ions and will prevent a shiny electrofoming result. Im sure youll find some spare container to put your anodes in. Happy eforming!
