Engraving engagement rings

Engraving on engagement rings has become very fashionable. This allows you to make even the simplest ring unique. In addition, the newlyweds so leave a piece of soul on their wedding jewelry, which makes the symbol of love and fidelity unique.

An engagement ring is not just an accessory. From time immemorial it was endowed with sacred properties. The shape of the ring has no beginning or end, as well as the love of two people who decided to fasten their union before the law and God.

This is a charm that preserves family well-being. This is also a reminder of the vows that the newlyweds gave on the first day of their life together. Therefore, before sending their wedding rings to the master, the newlyweds ask themselves a question: is it possible to do engraving at all?

If guided by ancient beliefs, then putting any inscriptions on the product is not recommended. The engagement ring should be as simple as possible so that subsequent family life is smooth.

According to Slavic traditions, you can not pass on your wedding jewelry to anyone, including a jewelry master. Otherwise, it is better to give the product to the engraver after the wedding ceremony.

It is also worth considering that engraving is not always practical. Wedding rings are worn for many years. During this time, your fingers may lose weight or grow fat, which is why many have to give their wedding jewelry to remake. Then the inscription on the product may become a hindrance to work or deteriorate.

Engraving on engagement rings can be done both outside and inside. Information that is accessible to prying eyes is left on the outer surface. On the inside - you can put more intimate information, for example, affectionate names. It makes sense to put the phrase in the inner part of the product if it is divided in half for the male and female rings. In addition, the inscription inside will be less susceptible to adverse factors and will last longer.

The most versatile way to label products. Only a lively hand of the master can fulfill any whims of customers regarding the engraving font. The specialist is able to supplement the inscription with various curls and monograms.

Manual work, as a rule, is much more valuable than mechanical. To make engraving on wedding rings, you need to find a highly skilled, talented engraver.

A variation of the manual method of applying images is engraving on the calm. She received this name due to a special tool - a shtikhel. This method takes first place in the complexity of applying images. A calm engraving requires high-class craftsmanship.

This method is widely used in engraving, as it has its own particular advantages:

• does not require the use of other techniques for decorating the product (for example, the use of paints or chemicals);
• the applied inscription retains its appearance for a long time - it does not wear out and does not fade;
• You can apply an ornament, text or numbers of any complexity;
• the edges of inscriptions or drawings obtained with the diamond method of engraving reflect light in their own way, which allows spouses to have unique shiny rings.

When drawing with a special diamond tool, microscopic tetrahedral pits form on the metal surface. They refract light in a special way, which gives the jewelry a peculiar shine inherent exclusively to jewelry with this processing method.

Diamond engraving method has its own requirements for decoration. The ring should be perfectly even and have a glossy surface.

A widespread method, because it allows you to put inscriptions of any complexity on various types of metals. Laser engraving equipment is affordable and easy to use.

The undoubted advantage of this method is that it can be used to display the smallest details. Laser engraving generally guarantees consistent imaging.

To apply a unique image to the engagement ring, you can resort to photo engraving. With its help, the effect of a black-and-white image is achieved, because due to the ability to change the line depth during the engraving process, the equipment is capable of transmitting semitones.

This method is not so widely used in jewelry. Sometimes it makes no sense to apply such small elements in the image to a small jewel.

It can be difficult for future spouses to choose the optimal inscription for the ring. Engraving wedding decorations is a very crucial step. No text can no longer be erased without damage to the product. But a competently and carefully thought-out phrase can always cheer up and save the situation even after the most violent quarrels, recalling romantic feelings at the beginning of a relationship.

Most often for the bride and groom on the rings engrave their names or the date of the marriage. Also popular is the idea when half the expression is applied to paired jewelry. You can use ready-made examples of phrases applied to wedding rings.

Most often, future spouses engrave their initials, names, date of marriage or first date. Due to the growing popularity of social networks, young people choose their nicknames as an inscription. The last idea will appeal to those couples who have met through the Internet.

Classic lovers can also choose the traditional phrase “I love you” for engraving. Also, one of the most common phrases for wedding rings is “Together forever”.

Words can be supplemented by engraving with the sign “infinity” in the form of a horizontal figure eight. If it is hard to come up with an inscription on your own, then the engraver will probably have samples of his work.

If the newlyweds want to have more unusual inscriptions for their wedding rings, then you can pick up a quote from the book. It is wonderful if the future husband and wife met in an unusual place, say, in a cafe or in another city. Then the name of the place where the first meeting took place is perfect for perpetuating with the help of engraving.

You can also select the appropriate quote from the movie or a line from your favorite song. The original solution will be the mobile phone number on the ring. In general, everything related to acquaintance, a first date or just pleasant emotions can be chosen for engraving. Perhaps this will be the name of the place where the couple first kissed. Such an inscription will always cheer you up, reminding you of romantic feelings.

Often couples order an engraving in English from engravers. This is not only an original way to capture pleasant words on wedding decorations. It happens that phrases in English sound shorter than their counterparts in Russian.

The most popular phrase is I love you, which even those who do not know English can easily translate. This is a vivid example when a similar phrase is shorter than in Russian. At the same time it sounds beautiful, but the meaning remains.

The traditional English language phrases about love are My hearts is yours forever, Only you, Crazy for you. Possible Together forever option or phrase with a similar meaning For always and forever.

For engagement rings, you can choose Forever and ever (God forever) or God joined us (United God) as an engraving.

Phrases for wedding decorations in Latin became popular. Thus, it is symbolic to imprint on engagement rings symbolizing eternal love, a phrase in an eternal language.

One Latin word can replace a longer Russian phrase, and at the same time have an equally deep meaning:

• Semel, translated as "Once and for all";
• Infinitum, in Russian means "to infinity."
• Fatum, translated from Latin - "Fate";

The ring can fit a longer expression. The phrase Ad finem saeculorum is popular. In the Russian-language version, it has almost the same length, and translates as "Until the end of time." A very beautiful expression in Latin is Semper in animo meo. In our opinion it will sound like "Forever in my heart."

It happens that a very short phrase, for example, “Only you,” in Latin sounds like Noc solum observabis ut. It is quite long, which makes the letters on the ring less, and the cost of engraving more expensive. Nevertheless, the newlyweds in this case give preference to beauty and symbolism.

There are pretty pretty phrases in French. They are both original and romantic:

• Je t`aime. At the same time, this is a line from the popular love song performed by Lara Fabian. Means "I love you."
• Por tous jour.She corresponds to the inscriptions in Russian "For All Ages" and "For All Times."
• Fortiter ac firmiter. In the Russian version, these words mean "Strong and strong."

An interesting solution would be engraving in the form of a quote from a favorite movie or a line from a romantic song. Just to find the right phrase from the movie, you need to spend a lot of time. After all, it should be short, and at the same time - capacious.

• "All that is special about me ... is you." From the movie "Great Expectations."
• “There is no price for the feeling of love - only one life ...” Rock opera "Juno and Avos".

It will be a little easier to pick up a line from a musical composition about love for engraving. It will be symbolic to perpetuate a line from the song of the first wedding dance. Perhaps the couple has their own song that they don’t want to talk about. Then engraving with the words from this composition in the inner side of the ring is perfect.

If the quote is quite long, then it can be divided. The first part of the phrase is engraved on the female jewelry, and the second on the male. This idea is perfect for paired rings.

The cost of engraving jewelry is proportional to the length of the phrase. As a rule, the exact amount depends on the number of letters. The price of a simple inscription on a smooth ring will average 1000 rubles on average. The price can vary from the complexity of the font, the material and the design of the jewelry. Engraving letters on a jewelry with a stone is much more difficult. From this and increases the cost of the wizard.

It also depends on the execution technique. Future spouses will have to pay more for manual work done with a diamond tool or a calm, than for an inscription printed with a laser.

Beautiful engraving will make the jewelry unique. However, not all masters are conscientious in their work. In order to avoid an unpleasant surprise before the wedding in the form of spoiled expensive jewelry, it is better to spend several days looking for a worthy engraver.
