Akoko Okeyo, Crystal Glass Engraver

Custom Hand Engraved Glass Hi, I 'engrave' on glass by hand, using a drill. Think of the drill as my brush and the glass as the canvas. This is quite different to the traditional method of 'etching' using chemicals, or sandblasting, which most people are familiar with. I offer Hand engraved glass ware including architectural windows, shower doors, entry ways, pantry doors, signs and installations as well as inscriptions for wedding awards and anniversaries.

Safari! Big Five Spotting!

Following my recent visit to Kenya I decided to engrave a set of glasses of the Big Five in Kenya. Originally used only by hunters, the term 'Big Five' refers to five of Africa's greatest wild animals - Lion, King of Beasts..was on my list to see and it was great to spot quite a number Leopard, Elephant, Buffalo, and Rhino.

I am always amazed at how beautiful elephants are...we took a three day Safari with my friend to Masaai Mara..one word to describe my safari Amazing! The wildebeest migration one of the seven wonders of the world did not disappoint either! I definitely will be retuning home soon with my family..

I don't have pictures of the complete set up but put up all my pictures soon!

Enjoy..
