Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many engraving books on the market illustrate the forms and appearance of finished designs but fail to provide adequate instructions for actual engraving. In sharp contrast, this comprehensive and practical manual by two educators and master craftsmen teaches every step of the engraving process. Clear, step-by-step instructions, accompanied by scores of illustrations, tell how to cut initials and inscriptions using a variety of alphabets, including script, ribbon, vertical script, and Roman letters as well as block and Old English. You'll also learn how to design and cut initials in monograms, what forms to use for properly decorating and embellishing engraved work, and how to correctly shape and maintain tools, particularly square script gravers — a tool basic to many different kinds of engraving. A glossary of terms and extensive, helpful question-and-answer section round out this immensely beneficial guide. While practicing artisans will find many useful suggestions for improving their professional work, beginners will especially consider The Jewelry Engravers Manual a valuable tool for mastering the art of engraving.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Letter Engraving in Theory and Practice: A Manual for the Use of Watchmakers, Jewelers and Other Metal Engravers Cognizant of the fact there are many young men desirous of learning the art of letter engraving, who are unable to take a course of instructions under an instructor, and that there are many doing engraving by laboring under perplexing and discouraging dis advantages, and are unaware of it to some extent, owing to the lack of rudimentary and technical train ing and knowledge of the art, while if they had the advantages of being correctly informed and started in the right way, they would find the work an art and pleasant study. For such reasons I was prompted to write this book. The author. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Engraving on Precious Metals written by A. Brittain and published by NAG Press. This book was released on 1958 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Engraving on Precious Metals" is for professionals and others who wish to learn hand engraving as a hobby or trade, and reveals many previously undisclosed practices of the commercial engraver which help to make his skill quite astonishing. All aspects of the craft are covered exhaustively, including the relatively modern innovation of the high-class machine engraver. This machine is particularly useful for repeat monograms and designs which are afterwards filled, because the template that guides the machine can be cut by hand. Illustrated throughout with over 250 drawings, the book gives practical hints for use in the workshop, while artistic matters are covered extensively in chapters on lettering design and layout, monograms, nameplates and ornamentation. A basic knowledge of ancillary crafts can be found in the sections on piercing, polishing, soldering and inlaying, and the use of unusual materials such as ivory, wood or plastic is also discussed. The final chapter contains a wide selection of different styles of lettering which are numbered for easy reference, and can be used by the retailer to indicate styles to customers and engravers
