Since returning to Perth, Peters' has been making exciting new pieces with gold and silver. Voluptuous beads, like poppy heads feature in bold rings, and lava bead necklaces. Coloured stainless steel wires suspend the neckpieces. Gem stones feature strongly in the work, especially tourmaline slices. The ‘keum boo’ technique which has become Peter’s signature (a Korean way of fusing gold sheet to sterling silver), is used across the range which adds to the abstract effects, and most notably on the ‘Loving Cups’ - delicate his and her cups made of gold and silver which are made especially as exhibition pieces
