Here is my latest work. I Purposefully made a design I thought was beyond my current skill set to try and improve.
Lots of very fine line stuff with “realistic” shading.
If you have any technical advice as to how you personally approach this PLEASE comment and let me know how to improve.
Thank you

Henning is a member of the South African Knife Makers Guild.
The tutorial covers the whole inlay process from start to finish including...

A work in progress: a Raven box in silver and 23K gold, 3" x 3" x 4". I have made silver boxes and gold boxes before, but this is the first time that I have used the gold inlay technique. This is my pet project; which I will work on as I have time over the next few months.

Recently the topic was discussed of working from a rough drawing to do your engraving …..and how "rough" some of us are.
Here's a bit of step-by-step on a project I did some time ago that'll show how I do it.
It shows the progression...
This pendant is silver with 23K gold, 1.25" x 1.25". Where I have inlaid gold this would abalone shell inlay, according to tradition. The old masters did amazing work with abalone shell inlay. It has taken me a while to figure out the best way to use inlay, and this piece is getting closer. I...
I like seeing the in progress posts by engravers so I am adding one of mine. The gold inlay and stipple texturing have not been used previously in Northwest coast Native engraving. I have been applying these techniques for about a year. The gold inlay face shown here is 7 MM wide. About 2 years...
This piece is sterling silver and 23K gold. Traditionally inlays like this were done with abalone shell, which is indigenous to my area. It has taken me a while to get the idea how to use the gold inlay technique effectively with this style of engraving. I see now that engraving on the inlaid...

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to inlay 24K gold into sterling silver? I engrave silver quite a bit and I would like to use the gold inlay technique, if it is possible on a such a soft metal.
I also engrave white gold, has anyone inlaid 24K gold into 14K or 18K white gold?
