Everything about engraving on wedding rings: is it possible, types, ideas for phrases

Is it possible to do

If we are talking about signs, then it is not advisable to put inscriptions on wedding rings - they should be smooth, without various decorations. They say this helps preserve family ties and avoid problems in life.

There are also rumors that you should not give the “symbol of love” to anyone, including the engraver. If you decide to do this, give him the product after the wedding. Approaching the issue from a purely practical side, engraving allows us to emphasize the importance of marriage and relationships. But there is one inconvenience - after applying any phrases to the surface of the decoration, reducing or enlarging it will be quite problematic.

Ring engraving options

At the moment, engraving on a ring can be done in two ways. Both have their own advantages and properties. Workers from GraverLux master them perfectly, which allows the customer to enjoy all the subtle features of the appearance of such creations. However, only you can choose which direction to go...

Laser engraving on the ring

- a modern version that appeared in the 20th century. At the moment, this is the most economical and popular way to create inscriptions and drawings on different surfaces. Laser engraving of rings is characterized by perfection and precision of lines, which makes it attractive to many people. This effect is achieved thanks to minimal human participation in the application process - the machine does everything accurately and with mechanical superiority. As a result, you are guaranteed to receive a product that looks like it came straight out of the pages of a fashion magazine.

Engraving on a ring made using a laser is not only a magnificent decoration, but also has an additional number of advantages over the classical method. A focused beam of light is able to penetrate even hard-to-reach places, which allows you to bring even the most complex ideas to life. Again, by automating the process, the cost becomes more favorable.

Advantages of laser engraving:

• High application speed;
• Favorable cost;
• Perfect line accuracy;
• The ability to make drawings even in hard-to-reach places;
• Production of lines of any thickness, even the thinnest;
• Drawing images and inscriptions of any complexity.

Diamond engraving on the ring

– a classic method, characterized by increased decorativeness. The appearance of the final product is truly exquisite and unique, because every corner, every millimeter has its own individuality, created by the hand of a master. Unlike the laser technologies described above, this requires professionalism and experience. Engraving on a ring in a classical way, even despite modern technology, is comparable to art, and people who have mastered it can safely be called artists.

The appearance of the products when leaving the workshop looks amazing. Patterns and inscriptions shimmer in a special way in the rays of light, giving them a stunning look. Of course, due to its aesthetic properties and complexity of implementation, the method of diamond application of information to a metal surface is more prestigious and expensive. Engraving on wedding rings of this class is an ideal way to immortalize your spiritual feelings on a material object.

Advantages of diamond engraving:

• Stunning aesthetic and decorative properties;
• Due to the complexity of the process, every detail of the image has its own individuality;
• This method is considered more prestigious and respectable;
• A true master works on your product, putting his soul into it.

Types of engraving on wedding rings

There are several types of engraving:

• manual;
• diamond;
• laser;
• silent;
• photo engraving.

The highest quality and most popular is laser technology.

External engraving

The inscription can be made on both the inside and outside of the product. The first option is the most common since the engraved phrases are very personal to the spouses. This is especially true when the beginning of a word is on one ring and its continuation is on the other. Writing on the inside is also convenient because it is less exposed to environmental factors. This allows it to remain in perfect condition for a long time.

The font type deserves special attention ; monogram (AL1, ALS, FL and RM) and decorative ones - PLN, Coventry, Alienware look beautiful. The main thing is that it is not too ornate, otherwise you won’t understand anything. Here you can select the desired font for engraving.

Now about the size ... The optimal length of a phrase is about 20 letters. Their width and height are selected individually, according to the size of the ring.

And the last point is the language in which the inscription will be made. The most common variant is Latin and English. In Russian-speaking countries, Russian is welcome.

Methods of engraving cutting on signets and rings

Engraving on rings and signets is possible on any jewelry made from precious and ordinary metals (gold, silver, brass, platinum, palladium, copper, etc.). To add individuality to the decoration, you can use inscriptions in different languages, memorable dates, various symbols or designs, for example, initials, hearts, coats of arms, an infinity sign, etc. Thanks to modern technologies, any cutting on signets is possible - photos, any vector and raster images, texts using different fonts. Some equipment has the ability to cut out text in the client's handwriting.

Engraving on men's signets occurs using an engraving machine or laser device. When using a laser, the text or pattern on jewelry turns out to be pale and is not very noticeable in bright light. A laser engraving machine allows you to transfer any image onto the surface of a signet or ring. The process takes 20-50 minutes, depending on the complexity of the design and the size of the decoration.

The mechanical method of application is more efficient and of higher quality. Its depth is 0.1 mm, which prevents text or images from erasing or fading. In addition, such depth does not catch and does not spoil clothes. Special diamond cutters, attachments and cutters on an engraving machine allow you to apply an inscription or design inside or outside a metal product.
