Questions

Where do you travel?

I’m based in Dubai and work across the UAE. I also travel worldwide for events.

What can you engrave on?

Glass, metal, crystal, wood and acrylic. If you have a product in mind, send a photo and I’ll tell you what works.

Can you engrave on all surfaces?

I engrave on most surfaces, but I always recommend discussing yours with me first. For events, I recommend a sample beforehand to make sure the surface engraves well. Some plastics can be engraved too, but they need to be tested first.

Is the engraving permanent?

Yes. Engraving is permanent.

How much does it cost?

Pricing is on request. Every event is quoted individually. Send your date and details through the enquiry form and I’ll reply with a quote.

How do I book?

Send the date, venue, expected guest numbers and what you would like personalised through the enquiry form. I’ll reply with ideas for your event and a quote.

Can engraving be combined with calligraphy or painting?

Yes. All three can be offered at the same event. Mention it in your enquiry.

Do you take personal orders?

Yes. For a single keepsake or a set of gifts, see Custom Requests.
