Engraving Text and Fonts
Engraving adds a personal touch to any gift or award. All items on this website have been selected as ideal for engraving. Text engraving is included in the item price. All engraving work is carried out on our premises by a member of our professional engraving team using various skilled engraving techniques to best suit your chosen gift.
All prices in our shop include the cost of engraving.
When you add an item to your basket, you will be given the choice of whether you would like the item to be engraved. You will also be invited to choose from a selection of fonts (text styles) for your engraving (scroll down to view fonts). Please note that the size of the font and layout of the text will be altered by the engraver to suit the item you have chosen. The engraving will be placed on one side of the item only.
The 'Engravable Area' measurements listed for each product have been governed by our engravers as the size of area most suited to that particular item. We will ensure your engraved message is centred, clear and elegant, without being over- or under-sized. Please remember that the more text you request we engrave onto an item, the smaller it will appear on the finished product; as a rule, less is more!
Text
When considering what text to have engraved onto an item, you might wish to consider:
- Do I want the recipient's name(s) on the item?
- Do I want the recipient's job/role title on the item (eg. Best Man, Manager of the Year, etc)?
- Do I want a significant date on the item (eg. date of Wedding, year award is being presented, etc)?
- Do I want the name(s) of the giver of the gift/award on the item?
- Do I want to add a personal message to the item (eg. 'on your special day','with much love' etc)?
Possibly most crucial when submitting your text for engraving is CHECK YOUR SPELLING!
Prices of engraving are included in the product price. This allows you to request text for engraving on one side of your chosen gift at no extra cost.

Fonts
Please note that the size of your chosen font and the layout of the text will be altered by the engraver to suit the item you have chosen. We will ensure your engraved message is clear and legible, without being over- or under-sized. However, when composing your message for engraving please take into consideration the item's engravable area size as detailed in the item's description. Additionally, please be aware that the size of the font may need reducing if a long message is required to fit into a small space. Remember, less can be more!
