Hardback. Condition: New. Guilloché is the decorative engraving of a metal surface, such as watch cases, cufflinks, or Fabergé Eggs, with the use of a hand-powered device called a rose engine. This passionately researched book tracks the birth, decline, and revival of this endangered craft and features exclusive information from the world's few living professional guillocheurs, as well as an exploration of the distinction between guilloché and its forebearer, ornamental turning. The word "guilloché" was first used to describe details of ancient Greek columns, but the rose engine didn't appear until the mid-1700s, near the French-Swiss border. With a basic knowledge of this contraption, and the straight-line machine, aspiring guillocheurs can follow 21 pattern-cutting "recipes" to create several classic designs and discover endless possibilities for new concepts. Authoritative text, gallery and detail photographs, dynamic illustrations, and precise, hand-drawn renderings will assist and delight adventurous craftspeople, machinists and engineers, and steampunks alike.

Guilloche is the decorative engraving of a metal surface, such as watch cases, cufflinks, or the Faberge Egg, with the use of a hand-powered device called a rose engine.

AUTHOR: Calina C. Shevlin earned both her bachelor's and master's degrees in metalsmithing and jewelry in the United States. While working towards her MFA, she discovered guilloche; and fell instantly in love. It became her passion and after several sporadic years of learning the art, she moved to Switzerland to work at a watch manufacture creating dials and oscillating weights. After a few years, she realised her desire to disseminate the information as well as give classes to revive a dying art form. It is through the research of interviewing many existing guillocheurs, and writing a concise history, as told to her by the greats, that this book has become a reality. Calina has great optimism about the longevity of this art because she feels that the time is right for this information to have the most impact with a turn away from technology and an emphasis on the hand made. 270 b/w and colour photos and drawings This passionately researched book tracks the birth, decline, and revival of guilloche and features exclusive information from the world's few living professional guillocheurs Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Life doesn't always ask for grand reinventions - sometimes, it only asks that we pause long enough to notice what's already here.In Say Yes to Life, Calina Aliman-Dorneanu shares seven deeply personal reflections on freedom, resilience, and the courage to begin again. Blending poetic insight with everyday simplicity, she reminds us that liberation isn't a distant destination - it's a way of being with ourselves. Through stories, questions, and still moments, these pages invite you to soften the noise, to remember your own rhythm, and to rediscover meaning in the smallest acts of living. For readers who loved The Mountain Is You or When You're Ready, This Is How You Heal, Say Yes to Life offers the same quiet clarity - a book to return to whenever you forget how beautiful ordinary can be.
