Nice work Not mine

Post by Makingtoothpicks »

Someone sent me this picture for inspiration. He tells me it is acrylic with gold inlay or fake gold filling.
He will not tear it apart to find out. (really). I think it is beyond my abilities . Maybe one of you.

That's some pretty detailed gold work.

Is it engraved & gilded on the front side?

I am told by the person that owns it, That it is done on reverse side front is smooth.I found out it is from the 90's and it
was a Franklyn Mint offering. One of those Factory authorize items they sold for far more then it was worth. I am told it
is about 1/2 " deep frame and all.. Probably made on China.It is gold and silver leaf.

Does look to be a 2D etch.
Could easily be done today by anyone with plexi, the dfx file and a drag bit, pretty impressive if it was done on the 90's.

Looks like reverse guilded glass, but maybe not?
