Copper Chaser in The median of Tunis I think this image could be featured because I like their creations looking at him while he is creating a new one.
Comments about profession depicted
  •  Comment Hi IssamBarhoumi, what a great photo! However, what he is doing is a bit mislabeled. What he is doing is not engraving, but it is very common for people outside the handicraft trade to know the difference. ;-) Engraving is when you cut away material to make patterns (no hammer involved for engraving metals). What he is doing is called chasing, part of the repoussé and chasing techniques used by copper, silver and goldsmiths. Chasing is when you hammer in a pattern into the material, and repoussé is when you hammer out patterns from the backside of the material. I have fixed up the description and the categories for you, but would you mind if the file was renamed too so that is showed the right profession. I'm so happy that we finally have a really good photo for the wiki articles and chasers on Wikidata. Coppersmiths often use many different techniques to make the patterns on their work, and the right terminology for all of them is not easy. Best, --Cart (talk) 15:25, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Great, all done now and I've fixed the code for your nomination to keep everything running as it should. --Cart (talk) 16:41, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment dear Cart thank you for all especially for giving me idea about the difference between the tow techniques -- IssamBarhoumi 19:45, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
