Examples of Medieval subjects

I would like to find a German who carves images on pewter. These scenes would be typical ones that I would choose for him to carve: Burgess at meals, standard weight in brass of the fish market at Mans, dues on wines, shop of a grocer and druggist, interior of a kitchen, village feast, measurers of corn, hay carriers, vintager, butcher and his servant, two-branched candlestick, baker, cultivation of fruit, brewer, butler at his duties, interior of a hostelry, river fisherman, miller, state banquet, double-handled pot, metal boiler, or tin pot, conveyance of fisf by water and land, counter seal of the butchers of Bruges, seal of the butchers of Bruges, dealer in eggs, whale fishing, manufacture of cheeses in Switzerland, hunting meal, cook, treading the grape, manufacture of oil, knife handles, wine grower, german musicians playing on the flute and goat's horn, dance called La Gaillarde, trouveur accompanying himself upon the violin, german musicians playing on the violin and bass viol, french cards for a game of piquet, sword dance to the sound of the bagpipe, Eight of Bells, King of Parrots, Court fool, personification of music, Ace of Carnations, Queen of Carnations, German falconer, hunting with the leopard, tapestry representing a hunting scene, Chiefs of Sbirri, in the secret service of the Council of Ten, Damsel of the court of Catherine de Medicis, german bourgeoisie, Emperor Charlemagne holding in one hand the globe and in the other a sword, and 32 more pages of images. I will type the 16 pages of scenes soon.***I like this idea because families and friends can tell stories with tapestries of these images and with pewter of these images. This would be a lucrative business and one that involves the arts and humanities and communication.
