Engraving

Au offers both laser and hand engraving services.

Laser Engraving

Au  provides state-of-the-art laser engraving services with a wide range of applications and effects.

Our computer-controlled, digital Rofin system delivers a high degree of precision, accuracy, and depth that is simply not possible with hand engraving or non-laser machine engraving. The lines are sharp and smooth, the layout is mathematically calculated for precise alignment, and the engraving is permanent.

Au’s laser engraving service also offers extensive flexibility in engraving effects including fonts, sizes, blackening, and even images.

We can:

• Engrave on any metal including stainless steel, sterling silver, gold, palladium, and platinum
• Engrave on both flat and curved surfaces
• Engrave any True Type Font
• Engrave images from your dxf, bmp, jpg, gif, tif or png file

The range of applications for laser engraving includes:

• Multi-line text on rings (inside and outside), bracelets, pendants, watches
• Hallmarks
• Karat stamps

Hand Engraving

While laser engraving has many applications, sometimes only the art of hand engraving will deliver the results you or your customer are looking for.  Hand engraving isn’t limited by fixtures, templates, fonts, sizes, or curves. Only by your imagination.

Hand engraving is an art and a craft, practiced by skilled craftsmen. The best engravers combine master technical engraving skill with a strong design and artistic sense. The best hand engravers study under masters such as Jason Marchiafava. Au has such an engraver on staff, ready to create one-of-a-kind jewelry that your customers will treasure.
