The latest in the Axis Series which is also a new Vitreograph.
Made using four 12mm glass plates, they have been carved and cut using glass engraving and diamond cutting tools. Unfortunately the key plate broke after only four prints in proofing, so four it is!

A series of trial glass plates made from recycled 12mm plate glass have been made. These have both engraved marks and sand-blasting on and will be inked up for trial printing. They represent the first attempts into the research and application of “VITREOGRAPHY” !
