"What is chase sterling silver?"

The term "chased sterling silver" refers to the method of 'moving' the silver with a rather small pointed tool and an equally small mallet. The silver is not removed, it is simply moved as the design or textured background is made with the help of the little mallet. Descriptions of this technique are often described as "hand chasing", or "hand chased sterling silver", or "sterling silver chasing".
