Chasing and repoussé are ancient techniques (possibly since 3000 B.C.!) that are still done basically the same way they were done back then. In simple terms, repoussé means to push forward or push up (it means “push up” in French); it refers to the metal being raised by hammering from the back to create dimension on the front. Chasing (from the French chasser, meaning “to chase”) outlines the pushed-forward designs by pushing back around their edges to define them. - https://www.interweave.com/article/jewelry/intro-chasing-rep...
