engravings

Engravings are designs or images carved, etched, or incised onto a surface, such as metal, wood, or glass. The process often involves removing material to create lines or patterns that stand out visually. Engravings are used for decorative art, printing illustrations, or marking items like jewelry, instruments, and currency. The technique can be done by hand with specialized tools or through machines. This method allows for detailed, durable images that can be reproduced multiple times, making engravings an important form of artistic expression and practical marking throughout history.
