Default Image of wax pull of seal engraved family crest

Hi all,

Well I told you all that I would be returning to Seal Engraving, here in the UK it is the deep engraving of a family crest into a heavy signet ring and I am pleased with my start.

Here is a pic of the wax 'pull' taken from the signet ring, you can see that it is the head of a Unicorn, it was quite difficult to show the twists of the horn but I am pleased with the way it came out. This signet ring was quite small, an oval of 12mm (just about 1/2inch) by 10mm (just under 7/16 inch)

This is great, its probably the most asked for engraving we get here, but my skill level is not up to it, so i use cad. Nice to see it being done right!

Well Done!
