Breed Studies

This collection presents a curated archive of engraved breed studies. Each portrait is redrawn in-house from verified reference and prepared specifically for glass engraving, with emphasis on recognisable form and balanced composition.

Available on a whisky tumbler, wine glass or pint glass, each design is deep engraved and hand finished in our Fife studio.

The Joy Is in the Moments Between

Dogs shape the rhythm of daily life — quiet routines, familiar walks, shared spaces. These engravings offer a considered way to mark that presence, without ornament or excess.

Each portrait is prepared with clarity and restraint, allowing the character of the breed to speak through proportion and line.

Our Thoughtful Approach

  • Redrawn In-House

    Each breed study is prepared from verified reference and refined for engraving clarity.

  • Prepared for Glass

    Line weight and contrast are adjusted to ensure the portrait translates cleanly once engraved.

  • Hand Engraved in Fife

    Every piece is deep engraved and hand finished using traditional sandblasting techniques.
