New Historic Building Christmas Ornament Series
Kaminer Haislip can create a custom silver Christmas ornament based on the historic building, house or church of your choice! From an image provided by the client, she renders the building in a line drawing. The drawing is then transferred to the silver plate, which is available in a round, square, or rectangular shape, and then etched with a chemical. The chemical creates a texture where the lines are, highlighting the form of the building.
All ornaments are made to order and multiples are an option. Additionally, the ornaments can be hand engraved with a date or name.
Contact Kaminer Haislip directly for details and pricing.
