Ring Engravings: Where Your Love Speaks in Secret
From timeless quotes to intimate nicknames, engravings transform a beautiful ring into a deeply personal keepsake. It’s a subtle yet meaningful way to carry your love wherever life takes you.
Make It Yours: Matching or Unique
Whether you want your engravings to mirror each other or reflect your personalities, the choice is yours. Every word or symbol adds a layer of intimacy to your forever piece.
Dates and Initials That Tell Your Tale
Have a preference for traditional? Consider engraving the date you first met, the day you got engaged or your initials. Each of these details changes the ring into a one-of-a-kind memento that is all your own.
Embrace the Past: Engravings that Matter
Honour the narrative you have begun. From the date you first met, to a special memory from your first date, an engraving can celebrate the beginning of your love story, while looking to the next steps of your journey together.

Engraving Made Simple: Advice from 33Carat
Keep it short: Women get 15 letters, men get 20 letters, and sometimes these can be exceeded for a small fee.
Width: Engraving will be good on rings with a band of 1.4mm or larger.
Fonts: Any font will do. You have script or block type fonts. Choose a script for a romantic feel, and choose a block for a classic appeal.
Special characters: Try using symbols such as heart shapes, infinite signs, or degree stones at a minimum cusp cost; even more special characters may be possible.
