Today, most custom engraving is done through the use of computer-controlled laser engraving machines. These later engravers are very precise, very deliberate, and can produce a wide variety of designs and shapes. They can be made to conform to any object and they rarely, if ever, make a mistake. But does precision make laser engraving better? Well, no.
Unfortunately, the use of laser engraving machines to customize awards, gifts, and other special pieces eliminates the most important factor associated with giving such an item -- artistry. The craftsmanship and artistry that it takes to perform sand blasted engraving by hand is unparalleled in terms of beauty and uniqueness.
You see, the process of handmade sandblast engraving takes time, effort, and passion. Imagine the talent it must take to create hand-designed precision engraving on a delicate piece of glass or crystal! There are very few craftsmen who possess the talent -- and the steady hand -- that it takes to accomplish such a feat.
If it is your goal to give someone you love a truly unique and special gift, why not give them the gift of artistry? Anyone can order computer-generated laser engraved items. But not everyone has access to beautifully crafted hand-engraved Christmas ornaments, plaques, awards, coffee mugs, and a host of other beautiful items.
Think about it, if you were planning to give someone you love a painting for Christmas, you would do your best to purchase one that has been painted by hand, an original piece, or something comparable. You wouldn't settle for a plain old poster. The same rule rings true when you’re planning to purchase items that can be custom engraved. Why would you choose an impersonal, machine originated, cookie-cutter design when you put give the one you love a gift that has been handcrafted by an artistic master?
The mere sound of the word “handcrafted” conjures up images of quality, beauty, and artistry. Yes, ordering a computer-generated custom engraving and save you time, in some cases it may save you money, but ordering custom engraving that has been sandblasted by hand is guaranteed to be well received each and every time. Your loved one will know that you took time and trouble to design your engraving and to find an artist to produce this truly special gift. And remember, as they say, you only get what you pay for. So, do yourself a favor and pay for quality.
