pierre · Jan 18, 2009

here is pics from a gun that i engave just after school , it's a 470NE made by a friend at school.
I have other oldies pics but i had to scan them.
i use the hand chisel for the animals, the ornement and the shadows are made with hammer and chisel .

Pierre Thats very nice. The scroll is beautifull and the shading is excellent.Your bulino work is great, the animals look alive and thats not easy to do.It looks like line tecnique is it? anyway its the kind of work that is never tiring to look at, so many subttle things there. Fantastic!!! Chris

That is VERY fine work Pierre. Thanks for posting it and it was a pleasure seeing it.

Peter (or Pierre if I were in France)

pierre · Jan 18, 2009

thanks for the comments.
franck here is the tiger knife, i think it's this one you speak about.
Mr De Camilis, I used the line technic for the animals, about the ornement, it's a "nemschee"? style, Mr Delcour had a print book of the engraver and at course, we study this style.
have a good day

Hi Pierre ,

Very classical and very beautiful, both gun and knife.

Leon Mignon school provides great engravers

Chapeau Pierre, je suis amoureux du style de gravure belge.

Pierre,

I too love the Belgian style of engraving. Everything you have shown us here is first rate work. Could you please tell us your full name so we all know to whom belongs the credit for these wonderful engravings?

Jean,

Can you tell me why you refer to Pierre as "hat" (chapeau)? Is this some kind of French joking reference?

Thanks,

Roger

santos · Jan 18, 2009

Hi Roger ,

It's an abbreviation for " Chapeau bas " something like "hats off" . Not a joke at all but a deference mark from a disciple to a master

pierre · Jan 18, 2009

hi roger my full name is pierre dÃ´me but it's not very important.
merci jean pour le commentaire sa fait chaud au coeur mais, je ne me considÃ¨re pas encore comme un maÃ®tre j'ai encore beaucoup de choses Ã apprendre nous verrons bien ce que l'avenir nous rÃ©serve

katia · Jan 18, 2009

Pierre is a very skilled engraver and also keen to share his knowledge. Bravo Monsieur!

Roger Bleile · Jan 18, 2009

Jean,

Thanks for the explanation. I like to learn something every day.

Pierre,

As one who enjoys studying the history and personalities of gun engraving, your name is important to me. Thanks for answering my question.

Roger

Mike Cirelli · Jan 18, 2009

Beautiful work Pierre. I agree with Rodger, an artist of your caliber your name is very important for all to know.
