Dear all
These four photographs were taken after I cut these Azure just to
show & explain how these cuts were actually created…with only 3
gravers!! I use only an Onglette #1, (modified & polished to cut on
the Right side) & regular shaped Onglette #2 & a Flat #40. As this is
somewhat a precise process, a very steady hand is required…(no
coffee before these cuts.) During my training sessions, I will do a
‘demo’ & demonstrate how setters long ago used to cut these intricate
patterns. Imagine underneath each hole, a pattern like these had to
be created & designed, then be set.
