Sugar and Spice: a new recipe

I made some wax "sugar" and "spice" blocks by designing and cutting with Rhino CAD. These were cast into bronze to be used as stamps for pressing pewter and copper. I made a few variations with some writing in relief, some recessed, some forwards and some backwards such that the copper pressed with them can be used as the front or back depending on the stamp. I tried to incorporate some variations of borders so that the pressed product would be delicately framed.
