repoussé or chased silver/front- or backside hammered silver


Explanation:
Walcowane (rolled) refers to a metal-working technique.
Here, dęte may refer to pushing the metal from the front or the back by hammering to create a surface relief .
ccccc
Repoussé or repoussage [ʁəpusaʒ] refer to a metalworking technique in which a malleable metal is shaped by hammering from the reverse side to create a design in low relief. Chasing, chased work, or embossing refer to a similar technique, in which the piece is hammered on the front side, sinking the metal. The two techniques are often used in conjunction.

Many metals can be used for chasing and repoussé work, including gold, silver, copper, and alloys such as steel, bronze, and pewter.

Precjoza z tej epoki wykonywane były ze złotej lub srebrnej, pokrywanej złotem lekkiej blachy, perfekcyjnie cyzelowanej, repusowanej i grawerowanej, często z dużymi kamieniami o intensywnych barwach lub kolorowym szkłem, dominowały zróżnicowane faktury i wielobarwne emalie. Ozdoby puste w środku (tzw. złoto dęte, dmuchane ) szybciej ulegały uszkodzeniom, na formie kalafonii trwałość i dobry stan znajdujemy nawet i dzisiaj. - https://bizuteriadawna.pl/epoki-i-style-w-bizuterii.html
