The portrait engraving

 

The origin of the portrait engraving can be seen in the art of the ancient world of greek and roman culture. Portrait engravings in precious stones are immortally timeless and of remaining value. A very special gift !
For the manufacturing of an portrait engraving we need photos of the person or animal supposed to be engraved. These can be taken by yourself, mo matter if old or new. This difficult engraving style is a special challenge for us when combining drawing and manual skills.

The portrait engravings may be used as brooch, wall picture or pendant. There is a choice of two different techniques: the classical relief engraving and the modern photolike shadow technique. We take the brazilian layer agate for creating transparency and effects of depth.
