Perhaps not wrong Karset, but just looked at from a slightly different perspective.

Different craftsmen can use different methods, and depending upon what is seen by the untrained eye, a slightly different picture can emerge. I think we can accept what you have written as perhaps a somewhat different technique to the technique that I have observed. Not necessarily wrong, just different. I think that what you have described could still fit within the broad span of variation used by different people in executing silverwork.
