A richly illustrated guide to the many and varied uses of engraving, printed in deep rich colours, gold, silver and blind embossing.
(Introduction) 'Like everything timeless, ENGRAVING is a process that, however old, has never lost its ability to satisfy people's yearning for the distinctive. Thanks to developments in both graphic design and computer power, this classic, opulent approach to laying down ink on paper is now more appealing than ever. Since words alone cannot convey the sensuously tactile effects, the elaborate detail and the outstanding precision of printing with engraved dies, the British Engraved Stationery Association has brought together a comprehensive range of examples to illustrate and explain the virtually endless creative possibilities. Together with technical explanations and an introduction to the history and process of ENGRAVING, this unique catalogue will prove a useful reminder and reference volume for both the graphic designer, the interested public and students of design.'
