How We Engrave and Personalise Jewellery
We offer a wide range of engraving options, allowing you to choose the style that best suits your vision and the specific piece of jewellery or accessory. There are several types of engraving, from traditional hand engraving to precision laser techniques, our skilled artisans are equipped to bring your customisation ideas to life and create unique and beautiful pieces with laser engraving only.
Types of Engraving
- Laser Engraving: This technique uses a high-precision laser to create detailed and long-lasting engravings, perfect for intricate designs, fine lettering, or complex symbols. Laser engraving is when looking to add a professional, polished finish to your jewellery.
- Hand Engraving: For a truly artisanal touch, hand engraving offers a timeless, personalised feel. This method is performed by our skilled engravers, allowing for more organic, textured designs that give a one-of-a-kind charm to each piece.
- Embossing: Ideal for creating a three-dimensional effect, embossing adds depth and texture to your chosen design. This option works beautifully on thicker jewellery pieces, such as bracelets or coin jewellery, where the design can stand out.
Font and Design Choices
- Font Options: Choose from a variety of fonts that best capture your style, from classic serif and cursive fonts to modern sans-serif. Each font style offers a unique aesthetic, whether you prefer a traditional look or something sleek and contemporary.
- Custom Symbols and Designs: Beyond text, we can engrave small symbols or custom designs. Choose from popular symbols like hearts, stars, or infinity signs, or bring your own design for a truly personalised touch.
Example Customisations
- Initials and Monograms: A classic choice for engraving, initials or monograms add a refined touch to rings, bracelets, cufflinks, tie clips, brooches and hip flasks
- Special Dates: Commemorate a meaningful date—whether it’s a wedding day, anniversary, or birthday—with a subtle engraving that you can carry with you always.
- Short Phrases or Quotes: A motivational word, a meaningful phrase, or even a favourite lyric can make a powerful statement when engraved onto jewellery. Short quotes are especially popular for bracelets and pendants, where they can be worn as a memento and a reminder of special moments and occasions.
