Engraving Your Wedding Bands,
New Jewelry Technology
Creates Romantic Possibilities .
What is more romantic for a bride and
groom than looking inside of their wedding bands and seeing a
personalized engraving with special meaning for them?
There are a few ways to accomplish this task that your jeweler
will recommend and now some new processes available that
increase the limits of the message that can be created on
rings.
Let us review the traditional methods most currently being used
in the marketplace.
First, there is hand engraving done by an artisan engraver
using a hand tool called a graver. It is not a perfect process
and the results will depend on the quality and skill of the
craftsman doing the work.
Also commonly used is machine engraving which is much more
precise but usually limited to one row of words using up to 20
characters to be engraved on the ring.
Now, a specialty process adapted to a not so new technology,
called laser engraving, has opened up a whole new realm of
possibilities for wedding couples who are thinking of engraving
their rings. Wedding bands are now being created with entire
messages that are clearly readable and up to 225 character
long. This allows the ability to write whole passages, even
entire wedding vows, on the inside of the wedding bands.
Currently, bridal couples are choosing from civil vows, gay
partner vows, religious vows, love poetry, Shakesperean
Sonnets, and even writing their own vows..
This sentimental and romantic addition to your wedding bands
can forever be a reminder of your love and the commitments
made, and add a special and unique touch to your wedding
day.
