"Those who appreciate beauty in its myriad forms can
admire the artistry in fine arms one need not be a target shooter; hunter; or
collector. Engraving and related embellishments are traditional areas in arms
and form a common bond, from the earliest weapons to the most modern sporting
rifles, with other fields of decorative arts particularly in metal, wood, and
ivory. It is possible to sense a certain
communication with the original owner of an engraved arm
simply by studying its decorative details. "
