This is a new project Im working on. Its a Victorian style oval boarder in brass. This is around 18 hours of work so far as there is a lot of detail. I hope to  add a centre monogram  later.  New Paragraph

I was honoured to be commissioned to make a leaving award to the Chairman of Harmonica UK. I made the silver plated harmonica , the wooden plinth and the inscription plate.   

I just finished a few small brass money clips this week. Various styles used in these designs from bright cut to American scrolls. 


Hi john 
Just wanted to say a huge thankyou for the beautiful engraving that you done on my grandads ornamental penknife .The detail of the scroll work is absolutely breathtakingly .The craftsmanship is incredible and in this day and age of mass produced manufacturing it is a pleasure to find someone that still has the talent and skills to do this type engraving by hand. I look forward sending you more pieces to engrave for me. Truly thankfully.
Anthony Bennett
