    Silver Crest Badge

    I have just had some silver work done by Roddy Young Silversmith in Inverness over the past few months and thought I would show a selection of some of his work. Let me say that my images do not do Roddys work justice as they are very 3D and not flat like some you see and are superbly hand crafted. The crests in the circlets measure 2.2in diameter and are around 28 grams quite heavy silverware.

    I wish I could take better pics because they look so much better in the flesh so to speak

    No website at the moment as he is having a new one created as the one he did have was done by himself and out of date. His email though is roddy@roddyyoung.co.uk.

    Beautiful work! I love your motto, John. I think you've posted it before, but thanks for refreshing my memory.
