Default Honolulu engraver

Hi,
Been a customer of Steve's for a couple years now. Hawaiian bracelets have been a tradition here since the very early 1900's. The present day styles are quite different from what was originally imported from England.

I am trying to keep the original style alive. Here a sample of some recent commissions. Three bracelets make up a set. The Hawaiian names are that of three girls of a local family. The style matches that of their grandmothers bracelet made about 70 years ago....

Here are a couple shots of my engraving bench. See if you can spot the "Classic"?
