A little more production

As some may be aware I delivered my 50 Leaf Letter Openers to the company that commissioned them.

The company was very pleased with the delivery; and ordered another 50. I said I could do that; but preferred to do them in batches of 10 over the next few months. I have completed my first batch of 10 as you can see from the photos below.

I took the opportunity to complete a few brass and copper leaves I started some months ago.

I will be on the look out for more flat silver plated EPNS and copper to complete the other 40 Leaf Letter Openers.

  5. JM, C, GB & B - sometimes commissions do not seem like creativity but at least it is use of creative skills. JM - certainly a challenge. C - you are so right - I need all the metal I can get. GB - thanks. B - thanks - and you are right it is a good feeling to know our art can find new homes and bring joy. All - go well. B
