Personalisation
What is the hand-stamping process?
Hand-stamping is the method of imprinting lettering onto charms using metal stamps and a hammer in either a clean or blackened finish*. No machine is used throughout the process, each letter, number, and character is placed by hand. Therefore, impressions may vary in depth, and pieces will often have an imprint found on the reverse. Sometimes this can mean the surface of the item will not be smooth, all of which is unavoidable. This is all part of the charm of a hand-stamped piece.
*There may be some residue from the ink used for blackened hand stamping found outside of the stamped letters, this can be easily wiped away with a soft clean cloth.

The hand-stamping on my necklace looks slightly different to my friends or family’s necklace. Why is that?
Although our in-house personalisation team are trained to a high standard, the nature of hand-stamping means each personalisation may come out slightly different. The irregularities of the process allow for a bespoke design and the handmade quality of the jewellery piece to shine through.
Can you hand-stamp special characters?
To ensure maximum quality, we only offer special characters ! ? & ( ) . , ‘ @ # and a heart outline, on our charms. However, please note that these characters aren’t available on outline charms, as the outcome may not render well.
What is the engraving process?
The engraving process uses a diamond-shaped laser controlled by a computer program. The laser beam etches the material using an extremely high heat in either a clean or blackened finish*.
This process allows for a variety of alphabets and accents to be used on charms or pendants for certain jewellery pieces. Some additional characters can also be included, but this is usually a case-by-case basis. This method also allows for the opportunity to engrave handwriting on some of our products.
*The blackened effect is deeper than clean engraving, with a strong black infill to allow the lettering to really stand out.

The personalisation I want is longer than the character limit, can this be done?
Character limits have been assigned to each product to ensure the optimum layout and quality of your jewellery. Additional letters and characters are considered on a case-by-case basis. Please get in contact with customer service by either phone or email to check before placing your order.
