The craft of engraving and carving letters has a rich heritage. Celebrate hand-cut words on objects – from signage and jewellery, to artworks and trophies.
About
This London Craft Week (8 – 12 May 2019), celebrate the craft of letter cutting with The Hand Engravers Association and The Lettering Arts Trust; step into the shoes of some of the UK’s most skilled craftspeople and discover how traditional techniques inform this contemporary craft practice.
The exhibition – ‘Inscribed’- will present a wide selection of artists’ work, alongside loans from the Goldsmiths’ Company, the Crafts Council and other collections, to provide a unique insight into the craft of letter cutting.
