Engraved Wine Bottled
I mentioned last week that Jonathan and I received an engraved wine bottle for Christmas. I wanted to share a picture and some information about the engraving. The engraving was done freehand by Ken Brown, without the assistance of templates or aids. Ken uses an ultra-high-speed dental drill with a carbide tip to complete the engravings. He is a self-taught calligrapher and is best known for his elegant script lettering with instruments. He is thought to be the most published calligrapher in history with millions of impressions of his work in print.
Ken also teaches engraving seminars annually and makes special appearances to engrave wine bottles. His website provides a listing of all these services. Engraved wine bottles make great holiday or birthday gifts. They are also a wonderful way to mark a special occasion such as an anniversary or company event.
