The Scrimshaw Technique
Scrimshaw involves carving the resin with a very sharp cutter to create the decorative pattern. The cracks are then filled with ink, in this case silver, and left to dry for at least three days. Finally, the entire surface is carefully cleaned until the entire design appears.
Scrimshaw was used in ancient times to decorate walking sticks, especially ivory ones, the handles of collectible knives, and rifle butts.
Currently, Visconti is the only company in the world to currently use this technique.
