My love for antler carvings bloomed in 1995, when I reassumed on my previous experiences with amateur woodcarvings. From an initial hobby it became my passion and slowly took my time away from my first love - hunting. Therefore you will find hunting themes on a lot of my products, to add to the selection I also offer fishing, dog, flora and folk productions. Same as my motifs, my assortments of products are diverse as well. Starting from decorative buttons on jackets or shirts to key chains, corkscrews, bottle openers, shooting canes and then to larger scale items like miniatures and engravings into moose or elk antlers.
Customers may choose from finished or custom productions. Custom items are based on person's wishes and are delivered within 3 weeks. A motif can also be based on an individual ideas, photo or a reproduction of a painting. Every piece from a button to a large engraving is an original and the back shows my initials and the year of creation.
Products from my workshop interest people in Slovakia, Germany, Austria, Russia, Switzerland, Holland and the USA. Readers of "Straz Myslivosti, Hubertov and Strelecka Revue"" could have partially acquainted with my work through articles and pictures of one of the best Czech knife makers: Karel Hons from Pilzen. I was lucky enough to have worked with him on some of his exclusive hunting knives. My engravings decorated the handles made out of antlers and mammoth's tusks. The knives were popular on an international knife exhibit in Brno, and they have received big honors from experts as well.
Most of my exhibits take place during hunting shows in Cheb and Karlovy Vary regions
