Stunning work. I am very fond of the scene with the mallards as that hits close to home for me.

Nice looking woman on the "Twenties" action. The background on that one would be intriguing to hear. An obviously rich, good-looking woman with an interest in fine doubles. Oh, never mind.... Gil

Phil,needless to say that it is stunning work. I admired your work in Vic Venters book, the best of British and also in British gun engraving from Douglas Tate. In our country we also had master engravers like Philippe Grifnée who died in 2012. Cheers, greetings from Belgium, Marc.

Philippe Grifnée stayed with me for a couple of days back in the 90's, he was a great engraver and a nice guy...what a waste!

Just noticed that phil's twenties gun matched pair is available thru westley richards. There are some lovely close ups of the finished gun. Asking 120,000 sterling. http://wrusedguns.com/guns/shotguns Click on the H&H pair. The finished article is indeed stunning to behold.
