Guilloche

Thanks all who answered my guilloche question, especially Ed Colbeth
for directing me to Peter Rowe’s utterly fascinating article.

Peter, if you’re out there, I have one last question: can the
traditional Faberge engraved effect be achieved with a modern CNC
machine (for example, Servo Products with Precise high speed
spindles) as with an old Plante, Hall, or Field engine turning
machine? Or is there a distinct quality to hand work?

breaking as tall as the trees.

Rick, I’m not Peter Rowe but you must have missed a very informative
answer to your question, along with a very neat link that came with
the message. If you would follow the following link you will answer a
lot of your questions. “http://www.pledge.co.uk/” is an excellent
answer, I didn’t know that a company like that even existed!!! ~(:sunglasses:
