    What am I looking at here? Is this a before and after situation? Working metal like that is called chasing.

    There's engraving there for sure, but I think there's also tools being used that are not engraving.

    The design was made from two pieces, one cut out using a jewelers saw, then the two pieces were assembled and soldered, the design details were then engraved. Beautiful design.

    Like this ring design. The lamination starts at minute 10:00

    The fork is deep relief engraving,it is a solid fork no soldered lamination on the fork.

    Gotta say, looks to me like a graver was used for everything - was told decades ago, that in the simplest of terms, 'chasing moves metal, engraving removes metal'...
