The Hand Engravers Association

The Hand Engravers Association was formed to raise the profile and preserve the skills of this specialist craft and its practitioners. We believe there is a lack of awareness and appreciation for what they do. The aim of the Association is to reverse this and to reignite an interest and understanding of this rich and diverse skill. The Association is also working to ensure that the skills of our craft are passed on to younger generations through apprenticeships and training. We have four simple aims:
Raise the profile of hand engraving
Education and training
Stimulation and new ideas
Representation for hand engravers
