Before you Engrave

You Should:

1. Ask to see examples of a hand engraver's work. Ask the same of a company that produces machine engraving.
2. Do the sample engravings appear to be fairly deep cuts (longer lasting) or shallow cuts (which will often wear away more easily)?
3. Find out which type of lettering your jeweler feels will be most durable on a ring worn every day.
4. Ask how long it takes to have the rings engraved to be sure there's time to complete the job before the wedding ceremony.
5. Will rings be sent out for engraving, or is it done in-house? There's always a risk of loss when rings are sent out.
6. Are the rings insured while in the jeweler's possession or when sent to another party for work?
