Here are some tips for engraving your Ring
It is important to take into consideration a number of factors when engraving a precious ring. Here are some tips on how to choose if and when engraving is right.
Engravable Rings Are a Must Have
Do not decide to engrave a ring until you’ve checked that it can be done. A jeweler is able to determine whether the metal on your ring can be engraved and if you have enough surface space to do so. Your jeweler can help you decide which rings will work best for engraving if you already know that you’ll be having your ring engraved.
Using modern technology, even the hardest metals (such as tungsten) and the softest ones like gold can be engraved. You may not be able to see the engraving, especially on silver or other highly reflective metals.
Set Your Budget
Fine jewelry requires high-quality material and great care to create. That’s why the price is so high. The customization of an heirloom-quality band will usually come with an additional charge. Asking the question “How expensive is it to engrave an ring?” can be important before you settle on a specific inscription. Engraving charges vary across the board and may be included with the purchase of a ring that is custom made or purchased from the jeweler. Ask the jeweler to tell you if he offers an engraving service. In that case, inquire about what is covered and how much. In most cases, engraving will cost between $50 and 100 dollars.
