A proud Signature Member with the AFC (Artist for Conservation)
” Through my art I wish to give the wildlife a voice to provoke an awareness and apprecitation of the natural world on our planet Earth.”

Susanne started as a professional engraver in 1990. Before that Susanne was a protege’ to the late great master engraver Hans Svensson at the Husqvarna fire arms manufacture. The Husqvarna engraving tradition goes more then 300 years back and in particular the famous scroll tradition.

Susanne Staaf is the only engraver who is using this Swedish scroll style today. She has developed the Husqvarna scroll tradition and taken it further and made it more refined. Eskilstuna rifle manufacture hired Susanne after Hans Svensson left, engraving the top of the line model Carl Gustaf 2000.

All engravings are made by hand! Susanne uses only hammer and chisel. A short description of engraving as an art work would simply be to cut ornaments, embellishments and pictures in metal.

Susanne has designed a new line of jewellery. It is varied with opportunities for own wishes from the customer.
