FIL: Isang dalubhasang artesano na gumagawa ng mga bagay mula sa pilak.
EN: silversmith
The more 'sosyal' cousin of the 'panday-bakal'. Instead of making rough-and-tough 'itaks', the 'panday-pilak' creates delicate and expensive jewelry, religious artifacts, and fancy utensils. Think of the artisans in Baguio or Meycauayan, Bulacan. They're the ones you go to for a custom engagement ring or a 'pasalubong' that screams 'I have good taste and some money.'
A compound word from `panday` (smith) + `pilak` (silver).
Specific to working with silver. A 'panday-ginto' (goldsmith) is another related term.
