Engraving Services explained Pewter is the ideal metal for engraving of text or complex designs.
We offer a high quality engraving service - name, initials, inscriptions, coats of arms, cartoons or other detailed line drawings can be added to tankards, goblets and flasks for you prior to despatch. The engraving is done by following lines. For this reason photographs or shaded images are not suitable.
We also have a range of designs which can be used as surrounds
Text engraving can be short or long provided there is sufficient space available - poems can readily be added to tankards for instance. Some examples of Latin and other inscriptions which you might consider are given on the engraving page.Using Roman Dates
Ordering engraving Detailed information is given below on engraving choices. Engraving can be ordered by selecting one or more of the buttons lower down the page, or by simply sending an email to tenigo@btconnect.com describing what you require. (Please quote your order number and name and address in any communication. )
Text styles / Fonts and Sizes
When emailing your engraving instructions to us, please give any comments you wish (which may be very specific or generalised ) about the text style or font you would like to have used. e.g. I'd like 'a script style', 'Block letters' 'Please use Algerian font' etc.
If you wish please state your preferences for size of text. Different lines in your engraving can be different sizes.
Engraving can be done quite small if you wish it to be discrete, i.e. only readable on close examination - just request that the text size is 'as small as possible' - this can if you wish be engraved low down on the side of the item being engraved.
