Our philosophy challenges the status quo; that only the finest guns access the best engraving.
We believe the art of gun engraving can be admired when travelling or at dinner as much as on the field.
Inspired by fine english gunmaking

1950 - 2009
Pushing the Boundaries
Always learning and practicing new techniques, he pushed the craft of engraving into new heights with acid etching and damascening where he created a palette of colours by making various alloys of gold, copper and platinum.

2009
Over 2000 Ken Hunt Engraved Guns
Ken went onto have a spectacular career working 7 days a week, often until 3am, not because he had to, it was his raison d'etre. He retired from gun engraving in 2009.

Ken's son and daughter followed his footsteps in the gun engraving trade. Marcus Hunt still engraves guns as well as other bespoke items such as luxury watches.
Daughter Alison became the first known female gun engraver in the trade. She stopped engraving in 1998 to focus on motherhood.

What a beautifully packaged parcel and the engraving is bewitching. I can’t stop looking at it. This bangle is stunning. It’s easy to self fit and it’s subtle and entertaining all at once. I’m wearing it everyday without fear and it really is a do all piece of jewellery. You could save it for best. Or you could wear it everyday.

I was delighted to receive this silver bracelet with the beautiful oak engraving inspired by Ken Hunt. The quality is first class and this lovely piece of jewellery was delivered in a walnut presentation box showing the care taken to deliver the piece in style. And I must say, the understated note from Grandson Charlie Bollands advising on how best to care for the bracelet was an excellent touch! To have one of Ken Hunt's amazing creative designs as a gift for my wife's special birthday is a privilage! Thank you very much.....
