2010 Laser Distinction Winners
The laser has become one of a designer’s most valuable tools, enabling metals to be joined in ways previously unimaginable. This year’s winning entries once again show the exquisite intricacy and detail made possible by the laser, and serve as a testament to the beauty made possible through the marriage of technology and tradition.
