WHAT IS ENGRAVING?

Engraving involves using our specialised tool to slowly and delicately etch your chosen design in to the surface of glass, metal, and selected plastics and ceramics. The result is a permanent and personal touch that lasts a lifetime.

For a little something extra, we also add what is called an ‘engraving fill’ in your choice of gold or silver. This gives the engraving a shine and helps the lettering stand out gorgeously.

The Engraving Process

  • A person in black gloves is signing a glass perfume bottle with the words 'With Love' written on it using a black marker.

    STEP ONE: DRAFTING

    Once design and placement are confirmed and approved through your digital mock-up, we carefully sketch the lettering onto the surface and triple check every detail.

  • A person is engraving words into a glass perfume bottle with a small electric engraving tool; the bottle is resting on a black cloth.

    STEP TWO: ENGRAVING

    Using our engraving tool, we slowly etch the design onto the surface. We go over a second time to mimic the thin and thick strokes of calligraphy script.

  • Close-up of a hand holding a clear glass perfume bottle with a silver cap, with the text 'The Scent of a Woman' and branding on the bottle, and a black glove on the other hand.

    STEP THREE: COLOUR FILL

    We carefully give the design a dust-off and clean, and from here, it can be left as is for a frosted look or we add your chosen engraving fill colour.

  • A person's hand holding a small, clear glass perfume bottle with a silver cap, engraved with the words 'With Love' and a small heart, against a light, soft background.

    STEP FOUR: IT'S DONE!

  • Most commonly I engrave fragrance bottles, but I can also engrave glass e.g champagne flutes, whiskey bottles (anything non-carbonated), metal and some plastics and ceramic. Surfaces need to be smooth to allow for a beautiful finish.
