Full description
Initial letter S with interwoven knotwork design repousse work (raised work) pewter plaque.
Lovely for a Christening present, graduation gift, birthday celebration, or wedding shower.
This original artwork comes mounted in a 10 x 8 cream board ready for framing.
All my works are origial one at a time handcrafted pieces.
The pewter is not hammered stamped or cast but involves many hours of meticulous hand work .
Repousse work pewter is an old craft that I discovered in Scotland many years ago.
On a visit to Hill House in Helensburgh, the house that the famous artist and architect, Charles Rennie Macintosh, designed for the publishing tycoon Walter Blackie, I saw a pewter panel made by Macintoshs' wife, Margaret Macdonald Macintosh. I sought out further work by the Glasgow Four, the beauty of some of their work moved me to tears.
When I returned home that summer in 1992, my love affair with pewter began.
Update to the above - my work was recently spotted by a buyer fron the National trust for Scotland and some items are now on sale in the Hill House gift shop! I feel really thrilled!
