Sam, should we not have a hall of fame for engravers.
Rules:
Must be alive or deceased
Must be Male or Female
Must be any nationality
Must be any religion or not
Must be of any political persuasion or not
Must be a very skilled engraver and love the art

Please add rules as desired:

Dangerous, doesn't the mean someone's not going to get in. If you do
have one, your going to have to extremely carefull politically.

Hi Glen,
Case in point, Benvento Cellini. According to him, he was the first
jeweller, engraver, and a great sculptor. Buddies with Leonardo da Vince.
One heck of a party guy.I've tried to find one example of his Jewellery,
nothing, nodda, zip, zero. The salt cellar he did for the king of France that was
out of gold was just to big and heavy to slip in someone's pocket.
Of course you can find his sculpture everywhere. I almost bought one at
a yard sale. So does he get a spot?

On second thought, I would'nt want to hurt any feeling:p
