Personalization Master Guide - How to Create Your Personalized Gift

At Deeply Engraved, we specialize in turning everyday items into modern heirlooms. Whether it’s a Swiss timepiece or a handcrafted leather wallet, our personalization process is designed for precision and emotional impact.

1. Handwriting Engraving (Our Signature Service)

We can engrave your actual handwriting onto any metal or leather surface in our shop.

  • The Process: Write your message on plain white paper using a dark pen. Take a clear, top-down photo and upload it on the product page.

  • Message Length: We recommend a maximum of 12 words for optimal clarity. Our designers manually "touch up" every file to ensure a deep, professional engraving.

  • Best For: Watches, Jewelry, and Metal Keychains.

2. Photo & Image Engraving

Turn a favorite memory into a permanent gift. We use high-definition laser technology to recreate photos with stunning detail.

  • The Process: Upload a high-resolution JPG or PNG.

  • Technical Guideline: High-contrast photos with simple backgrounds produce the best results. Our lasers translate your photo into a textured, grayscale engraving.

  • Best For: Pendants, Photo Frames, and Keepsake Boxes.

3. Precision Text Engraving

For a clean, classic look, choose from our curated library of professional fonts.

  • The Process: Type your message directly into the "Personalization" box on the product page.

  • Character limits vary by product, from 20 characters up to 200 charcters. We use diamond-tip or fiber-laser engraving depending on the material for a permanent, non-fade finish.

  • Best For: Wallets, Pens, and Glassware.
