Engravers Nottingham

Engraving can be dated back as far as the middle stone age. It is no wonder that engraving today is considered a time honoured art and a craft that can be traced back through the centuries. From the kindling of civilisation up to the modern day, engraving is a skill that has evolved and progressed staggeringly as time has passed by.

Nottingham is a city with a place both in British history and world history. Nottingham is most famous for its folklore and the combined myth and reality of the cultural amalgam that is Robin Hood. What some people don’t know is that Nottingham has a fine tradition of engraving that carries on today. Engraving has its roots in art, and some of the finest works of art known to man have been made by engravers using their craft. Engraving today still carries itself and is thought of highly in the art world, but a commercial use of engraving has emerged over the years. Engraving on jewellery is the most traditional commercial use of engraving. While the gift of jewellery is special on its own, having a message or a name engraved into the jewellery can give it personalisation and uniqueness, and that will make it more than just an ordinary piece of jewellery.

However, the worst thing you can do when hiring an engraver to do a job is failing to ensure you that what you’re having engraving is spelt correctly or lists the right number or date. It would be an awful shame to go through the trouble of having something as expensive as jewellery engraved only to have it come out entirely wrong. Jewellery isn’t the only thing you can have engraved, so don’t feel entirely confined to giving engraved jewellery as a gift. Even electronic items like MP3 players can have a name or message engraved onto the casing.

So if you’re considering a gift for your loved one, why not have something engraved by one of the fine engravers of Nottingham? You’re sure not to be disappointed, but remember to make sure what you’re having engraved is spelt correctly!
