LASER ENGRAVING

What is it?
Laser engraving is a process which engraves or etches a logo onto (normally) a metal product. Engraving to other materials such as wood may also be available. Since the logo is etched on the the product, long term durability of the decoration is guaranteed.

Customers should be aware of the subtle look of engraving on chrome or similar coloured metals. While this is a common and sometimes desirable result, some customers may have a different perception of the final result.


Some pens show a brass colour (see above examples), when engraved. It you're in doubt about the colour of the metal below the coloured surface, please ask before proceeding.
