先在铜器表面用錾子刻出阴线纹样,将银丝加热软化后嵌入沟槽,以锤轻敲使其贴合,再用锉刀锉平并抛光。关键是沟槽要略窄于银丝以保证咬合力。

First chase a line pattern into the copper surface with a graver, then soften silver wire by heating and press it into the groove, tapping lightly with a hammer to seat it, then file flush and polish. The groove should be slightly narrower than the wire for a tight fit. ---
