Old engravings


Recommended Posts

Had one of my regular customers in with some trophies to engrave,

and one of the shields is attached - i am always amazed balled when I see engraving from this era 

all hand engraved and must have taken an incredible amount of time to do 

- when I first came into the trade around 1978/9 I was lucky enough to know a hand engraver and used to watch him carving the lettering and each letter was fantastic.

It's quite a shame that our engraving machines can't replicate this - unless someone out there knows better?
