Hello folks,
Here is a pic of a Evo Fabbri action. Could you please tell me how this scene is engraved? Is it stippled?
Here is the web page it came from. Scroll down to the engraving examples. Ah, those Italians!

It is hard to see from that exact photo but what you are seeing is usually referred to as bulino. It can be a combination of fine cuts and dots. Sometimes the dots are stippled, sometimes thay are "flicked" out.
Others use just a lot of small lines and cuts.
