Engraving
Sometimes a surface calls for engraving rather than ink in order to enhance a treasured keepsake or a unique piece of décor.
Using a freehand engraver, I can add my signature lettering style on a range of materials. Every stroke is engraved with attention to detail. Each item is custom designed with your vision in mind.
I can also offer engraving services for live events. Please contact hello@mintlettering.com with details.
Surfaces that work well
Smooth surfaces work best, for example:
Glass: Perfume bottles, non-pressurised wine/spirit bottles, candles, wine or shot glasses.
Metals: Lipstick case, water bottle, make-up brushes, cake knife, compact mirror.
Stone: Marble, slate, Gua Sha.
Please note that pressurised bottles (e.g. champagne, carbonated drinks) cannot be engraved. I can use a white ink instead. Please email for more information.

The engraved design can be left as is or, if the surface allows, can be filled with a gold or silver pigment. Please note, pigments do not work well on frosted surfaces.
