✨ Behind the Scenes of Our Latest Engagement Sign ✨

Here are the progress shots of a very special piece we recently created for Michael & Stephanie’s engagement. 💍

Every project begins with our clients, we chat about fonts, colours, etching styles and metal finishes to bring their vision to life. From there, the process is a true labour of love:

🔹 Designing and masking the glass for acid & silvering
🔹 Two-tone etching, deep for the tree lines, rough grit for texture
🔹 Hand-painting with custom blends that adhere perfectly to glass
🔹 Water gilding with 24kt gold, doubled and burnished for a flawless mirror shine
🔹 Protecting with gold backing with gold paint and black sealant
🔹 Finishing with a custom laser-cut frame for safe transport & display

This project took around 2 weeks, combining years of experience, patience, and craftsmanship into one unique artwork. 🌟

💡 Did you know? You can commission us for a custom piece like this! We require 2-3 weeks to complete, so if you have an engagement, wedding, or milestone celebration coming up. Now’s the time to get in touch.

Every detail matters. Every piece tells a story. And no two creations are ever the same. ✨

Term Tuesday
Serif vs Sans Serif – What’s the Difference?

When it comes to fonts, the choice between serif and sans serif can change the entire feel of your design or engraving.

🔤 Serif:
These fonts have small decorative strokes or "feet" at the ends of letters.
Think classic, elegant, and traditional - great for wedding pieces, formal signage, and anything vintage-inspired.
Example: Times New Roman, Garamond

🔤 Sans Serif:
Sans = without. These fonts are clean, modern and minimalist, with no extra flourishes.
Perfect for a sleek look - ideal for branding, modern décor, and contemporary giftware.
Example: Helvetica, Arial

Font choice matters, especially when it’s engraved! The style affects both readability and the message your piece sends.

Want help picking the perfect font for your next custom order? Just ask — we’ve got the tools and the eye for detail. 👀

🔍 Materials Matter: Cast vs. Extruded — What’s the Difference?

When it comes to working with acrylic, vinyl, or metals, knowing the material origin makes all the difference in how we cut, engrave, and finish.

Let’s break it down:

🟫 Cast Material
✔️ Poured into molds and cured
✔️ Denser, more stable, and resistant to heat
✔️ Engraves beautifully with a frosted finish
✔️ Great for signage, awards, and detailed engraving

🟦 Extruded Material
✔️ Pushed through rollers and shaped
✔️ More uniform but softer and more flexible
✔️ Doesn’t engrave as cleanly — can melt or warp under high heat
✔️ Best for budget-friendly fabrication and flat cutting

🔧 We use cast acrylic and cast metal blanks for most of our high-end engraving work — because precision and finish matter just as much as the message.

Knowing your materials means better results, longer-lasting pieces, and fewer surprises. 💡

🛠️ Tool of the Week: Calipers 🔍📏

Not the flashiest tool in the studio — but definitely one of the most critical. This week, we're giving a little love to the humble calipers.

Calipers help us get precision down to the millimetre, making sure every engraving, cut, or placement is spot-on. When you’re working with small items like pet tags, leather keyrings, or custom stamps, even the tiniest misalignment stands out.

Why calipers matter:
📐 Ensure perfect symmetry and spacing
📏 Measure thickness and diameter with accuracy
🎯 Essential for laser alignment and engraving prep

In short — no guesswork here. Just clean, consistent, and professional results every time.
