This Repousse hammer, sometimes referred to as a chasing hammer is used for creating a relief design or embossing, into a sheet of metal. 

To Repousse is to create a design by hammering from the underside of the metal, and chasing is to shape the metal from the top. The two work hand in hand to form the embossed design, and this hammer with its ergonomic handle will perform in a way that allows repetitive light hammering that springs back after each strike, thereby forming the folds and shapes in your metal.  

The Repousse hammer is a must-have tool with a quality finish for your metalsmithing techniques.
