I have for some time had the urge to engrave The badge of

After engraving it onto a mixer glass GLASS to add to the shops Army stock
I decided to engrave The badge which by the way was my Dads regiment on to
A Dartington Crystal decanter and two glasses to add to the
range at The Dartinton Crystal shop at Denby Pottery visitor centre

The decanter is know as Eleanor Decanter
and the glasses are Eleanor tumblers They
Make A great Combination

I have been looking for a cool theme and have come up with the idea of
engraving Victorian ice skaters around it.
Sorry changed my mind

New project january 2011
engraving on used bottles is nothing new for me however i have decided to transform this bottle from decanter to oil burning lamp
the engraving will be a dragon theme but if you like the idea i can do a subject to suit you just getin touch
used portugese wine bottle before transformation

oil burner wick
although the bottle can also hold a candle or be left with screwcap as decanter
next step is to clean up the bottle then plan the engraving


the finished item
