One of H&H's '20's pair, the portrait is taken off a Vouge front cover (1920's) I super-imposed the face of the lady that ordered the pair onto the models picture.
Oh, by the way that's me and Simon
If there's anything you would like to know about the pics/engraving etc. i'll try my best to answer your questions.
By the way if you click on the pics they should open in Putfile where you can enlarge them, although some of them are scanned so the quality is not too good!

Beautiful work, but I can't quite make out the engraving on the LH shooter's gun; is that a self portrait grinning out at everyone? :p




I really like your workshop with all that natural light. That's a very fancy looking turned base to your vice. Burr elm? I'm sure that's another customisable knick-nack that many scratchers would like to add to their tool kit.
