Hand engraving is the ancient art of carving out metal to create lettering, portraits, and a variety of other creative choices, using a series of steel gravers. Free to be more versatile than that of machine and laser engraving, hand engraving provides a near perfect human touch. Each engraving begins with a custom hand drawing, a painted layout, re-drawing, scribing, and cutting. Creating an engraving, is as unique as the individuals who come to appreciate the delicate, and everlasting craftsmanship.
