Hand Engraving Details
Hand engraving makes a lovely addition to the inside or the outside of your eternity ring. Here are some guidelines as to what can be done.
Inside of your eternity ring shank
Lettered engraving on the inside of an eternity ring is only available in one font style - this is a slightly italicised script. The cost is £1.50 (+VAT UK and EU only) per character (thats about US$2.80) with a minumum charge of £30 + VAT (thats about US$55) and there is generally enough space for a maximum of about 25 normal characters including spaces, but of course this varies from size to size. We can engrave words in any language and simple symbols (for example a simple heart shape). Simple symbols (eg a heart) start at around £5 + VAT (about US$9) per character. Its worth remembering that if your wedding ring has many stones then these stone backs are usually open (to aid cleaning the stones) so we can only generally fit about 1 character between each stone hole and one of these gaps will already be taken up with the hallmark.
Outside of your eternity ring shank
If your eternity ring is a simple design, the cost of engraving on the outside of it can be from about £4 (+VAT UK and EU only) per letter for small simple italics. There are a large choice of fonts so email us if you have something particular in mind. Alternatively, you could print something in your own handwriting and our engravers could copy this onto your eternity ring.
Shapes can also be engraved onto your eternity ring's outside. This engraving is done by hand and so in general very intricate designs do not work very well. As a rule of thumb, imaging drawing a shape into your eternity ring using a felt tip pen - this gives you an idea of the type of simple design that will work.
