Engine-Turned Brass is brass decorated with finely repeated geometric patterns created using a precision engine-turning machine. The process produces elegant circular, wave or guilloché designs that catch and reflect light beautifully. Popular during the late Victorian, Edwardian and Art Deco periods, engine-turned brass appears on lamp bases, clocks, cigarette cases and decorative accessories. *Related Terms*\ Brass, Engine Turning, Guilloché, Metalwork, Table Lamp.
