Engraving is the art of creating designs on metal objects. An art where delicacy, precision, and patience are among the most important requirements. The flower and bird design remains the most common motif in engraving art, executed on many metal works and being one of the most popular designs. The method of working in the art of engraving is such that the engraver first draws the design to be executed with a pencil on the metal surface. In the next stage, the inside or outside of the work is filled with molten bitumen, and after the bitumen hardens, they start executing the design using a hammer and chisel. Pouring bitumen is done to prevent the dish from bending or breaking due to the hammer and chisel blows. The chisels are of various kinds and are made in different shapes based on the design and method of work. Skilled artists usually make their own chisels based on the type of need they have. Copper or brass flat dishes or plates are the most common backgrounds for the art of engraving and are sometimes covered with a coating of silver or tin.
