Default My First Artisan Engraving

This is a custom 1911 by Volkmann out of Colorado, well built firearm.
My customer decided that he wanted a Gold border on the slide and it is in .020 wire, about 27 inches. The scrollwork in my Victorian style with the background relieved. This was a pleasure to engrave with my Lindsay._JR
