Fonts & Lettering Styles
We offer a wide range of font options for inscriptions, from timeless serif styles to contemporary script fonts.
If you have a specific font in mind that holds personal meaning, you're more than welcome to provide it.
For a longer-lasting and more legible engraving, we highly recommend choosing simpler fonts. These allow us to engrave deeper and our paint to sit in the glass rather than on top of the glass, ensuring better durability over time.
Simple fonts not only stand the test of time but also offer better readability at a glance.
To help you visualise the final result, we provide mock-up stages throughout the design process.
Every plaque is engraved with great care and precision. Our design team will work closely with you to ensure each word and letter reflects your sentiment exactly as you imagined.
