any married couples will tell you that it was the small touches that made their wedding day memorable. Small details will often linger in your memory after the taste of the cake and the smell of the flowers has faded away. Couples are using a small touch like custom jewelry engraving to make a big impact on their special day and create lasting memories for years to come. Jewelry engraving is not something that you can or should do yourself. Mastering different hand engraving tools can take years because of the variety of different tools involved. The different properties of precious metals are also a factor since they react differently to the various tools and techniques. There are several different engraving methods that a jewelry maker can use. They include laser engraving, hand engraving and machine engraving. Depending on the intricacy of the engraving to be done, you may opt to have machine or laser engraving performed. These two methods involve using a pattern to create a computerized template. This template is fed into the graving machine so that it can be transferred to the piece of jewelry. The style of the writing on the inside of the ring is as important as how it is placed there. There is a huge range of different type styles ranging from plain text to very ornate calligraphy. Ornate styles of writing are beautiful but can be hard to read especially if they are small. In order to keep the writing legible you should select a much plainer style of text. These can still be quite lovely. If you are dealing with an experienced engraver they can give you excellent guidance about which type styles work well. Hand engraving is a different technique. It can be used to produce some beautiful designs but since it can take a great deal of time to master different tools it is best left to the professionals. Hand engraving can often work best on jewelry that is made out of gold. Gold is a very soft metal, especially higher karat gold. Therefore, gold can be a metal which is easier to work with than platinum or silver and therefore may be less expensive to engrave. If you want to make sure that the engraving will be around for many years to come, consider making sure that the cuts used to engrave the piece are very deep. This allows for some of the metal’s surface to wear away over time but it should not harm the inscription. Deep cuts are a sign of an experienced and capable engraver. If your engraver does not have a large choice in tools this may be a warning sign that they do not have the experience they claim. Experienced engravers like to have a range of tools since different shapes make carving much easier. One thing that you should be aware of when you are having jewelry engraved is that once the piece is engraved you cannot usually re-size it without damaging the pattern or destroying the piece. This is because a ring, for example, will need to be stretched to make it larger. This can distort or destroy the pattern. If you are reducing the size it may be possible to do so without damaging the pattern but this is highly unlikely. If you are unsure of the size you can always wait to engrave the piece after the size has been determined. If you take the time and plan out the piece to be engraved you will be amazed at how touching and memorable the piece can become. Imagine being able to look inside your wedding ring and read your vows as freshly as the day you first exchanged them. Engraving your rings can be one way to express your love and commitment to your partner in a lasting and meaningful way. About the Author:
