Love the way you framed that floral pattern. A good study in shading as well. I have to agree with Brian's comment on the bail, something daintier would appeal more to me .Thanks.

your work is great. as for the bail-- i don't see it. the engraving does not allow my eye to bother lookin at the bail. calm down, everybody, take a deep breath, jmpo.
Wonderful engraving and shading! Wish I could see the borders a bit closer. Those are amazing and I would be interested to know the order and technique you used to cut the borders. Thanks for sharing this.
