One of the most traditional and popular ways to customise rings is by engraving them with a few words or a design<\/strong>. Most common are rings with a special date inscribed on the inside surface. Do you know how and why this impacts the jewellery? I\u2019ll give a brief explanation here!<\/p>\n

Pair of rings with date and names hand-engraved on the inside. Refined engraving work. (Engravings by Michele Griggio)<\/p><\/div>\n

Engraved jewellery is one of the oldest types of ornaments known to humankind. The earliest rings engraved date back to the Bronze Age, but weren\u2019t just decorations \u2013 they were actually\u00a0seals<\/a>.\u00a0Today ring\u00a0engravings are purely ornamental, with the sole aim of <\/strong>customisation<\/strong>. The most common example is wedding rings with the wedding date engraved on the inside. Alternatively it could commemorate the couple\u2019s first date, first kiss, or another significant event. I find this a very romantic way to make your ring completely unique. If you like, you could even opt for engraving your <\/strong>names<\/strong>\u00a0along with an important symbol, your <\/strong>initials<\/strong>, a meaningful number, or a quote. . .as long as there\u2019s enough space!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Although rings are the most popular type of jewellery to engrave dates on, the truth is that all types of\u00a0<\/strong>jewellery<\/strong>\u00a0within a certain size and thickness can be engraved<\/strong>. There are two basic techniques for engraving: the pantograph and by hand. The pantograph is a machine equipped with a cutter on the tip; it\u2019s used quite rarely and only to engrave letters or numbers. Engraving by hand, however, is a real art, practiced by experts in engraving and setting. <\/strong>Engraving on metal is a very ancient art; it\u2019s also used to create numbered prints. It requires a slow and precise technique to replicate any miniaturized design on metal, because the tip of the burin can create an infinite amount of shapes and dimensions. It obviously depends on how much space you have to work with: the larger the size of the writing or drawing, the bigger the jewellery needs to be.<\/p>\n

Already have a few ideas in mind?\u00a0Contact me<\/a>!<\/p>\n
