Engravable pens - Exclusive writing instruments with engravings

An introduction to pen engraving

Penoblo makes it possible to personalise a fine writing implement. You can have any content engraved onto the body of your pen, within the character limit, creating stunning gifts for those you love, or just a unique item for you to use day in, day out.

For those who don't already know, engraving refers to the practice of cutting patterns or words into a material's surface, which are usually, although not always, made from metal. Traditionally, engravers have used chemicals like acids to make impressions in their materials, but this isn't the case for our fine pens. Instead, experts at luxury pen manufacturers use cutting-edge laser and diamond-based engraving techniques, both of which have their own special properties.

Pens are well suited to engraving processes, and pen-makers have been mastering the techniques for over a century. By now, they know how to create pure, flawless lines in pens made from plastic, metal, celluloid, and almost any other materials. Let's look in more depth at the various ways to achieve a professional quality pen engraving.

 

Different types of pen engraving techniques

The experts at premium pen companies have to take the utmost care when they engrave premium pens. Each pen could be worth a substantial amount of money and is most likely a treasured object. Any mistake or slip can ruin the finish of the pen, or result in hours of painstaking repair work. That's why the process is carried out by trained professionals have years of expertise, who approach each project with care.

Engravers have to deal with several challenges when carrying out their work. For one thing, pens tend to be rounded, which means that text cannot simply be engraved onto a flat surface. Good engravers can create balanced, consistent fonts while factoring the curvature of the pen into their work.

They also need to be able to create a regular, harmonious style of writing. Any flaws, under-sized, or over-sized letters will stand out and ruin the engraving. Skilled engravers are meticulous about how their script and capitals appear. They take tremendous amounts of care to get every cross-line and circle perfectly.

But what specific techniques to modern engravers rely upon to create their designs? The teams at the companies we work with use two methods: laser engraving and diamond engraving. You can choose either for your personalised pen design. They also have different strengths and weaknesses, which are worth bearing in mind:

Laser engraving uses laser beams to cut letters into the surface of the pen's body. These beams can be directed using computers to any part of the pen, and any combination of letters and numbers is possible, so you can be as imaginative as you like when choosing what to have engraved on your writing implement.

Laser engraving tends to be unobtrusive. It fits neatly and harmoniously into the composition of the pen. Along with written words, engravers can add graphics and company logos - appealing for firms who like to keep staff or clients supplied with branded merchandise and tools. If you would like to create a selection of high-quality engraved pens, choosing laser engraving is recommended.

Diamonds have been used for centuries as engraving tools. The great Scottish poet Robbie Burns used a diamond-tipped pen to engrave his shorter poems into window glass. You may not have Burns' poetic gifts, but if you want a reliable, attractive way to add a message or decoration, diamond engraving is an excellent option.

Diamond engraving involves using high-strength diamonds to achieve a milled finish, which goes deeper than laser-based techniques. This makes diamond-etched designs much more durable than laser engravings, which in turn makes them suitable for lifetime gifts such as wedding, christening or graduation gifts. As with laser engraving, you can be specific and creative with what is added to your pen's surface - with handwriting and printed graphics both possible.

Which option is the one for you? That's a personal question. In many everyday cases, laser engraving is preferable, for example, if you need a set of engraved pens for office use or for taking to university lectures.

However, the deeper cutting of diamond engraving makes it the premium standard for truly special items. If you know that the pen will be in use for decades, and you don't want the message to fade away, we recommend diamond engraving.

 

What makes engraved pens such a special purchase?

Why would you want to add an engraved element to a luxury ballpoint or fountain pen? To some people, it might seem like an unnecessary extra, at least on the face of things. But adding an engraving is a highly desirable and affordable way to enhance premium pens.

For one thing, engraved pens make an impressive gesture. If you want to establish a rapport with a client, a friend, or a relative, an engraved message can add a personal touch that communicates your fellowship, respect or love very powerfully. Because engravings last for years, the personal bond established by giving the pen will endure as well, helping to keep relationships alive and fruitful. That's why you'll often see businessmen sending engraved pens to contacts in other parts of the world. There's something special about pens that make them a token of esteem and respect, particularly when they are engraved with the user's name.

Then there's the emotional aspect. If you are giving a pen to someone you love, why not add a message that only you could come up with, and one that communicates how you feel about them? Aside from the beauty of premium pens, when they are engraved, they become personal charms and companions that people treasure and take with them everywhere they go. So, if your daughter is studying in America, or your son is backpacking in India, their engraved pen maintains a special connection with home.

Engraved pens are also simply wonderful gifts. On one hand, they are personalised - and personal gifts are always preferable. On the other, our premium pens from the world's greatest stationery designers. So, when people receive an engraved pen, they will be receiving a special message and a gorgeous writing implement - a combination that very few gifts can match.

And engraved pens also have staying power. They aren't the kind of item that will be looked at, used briefly, and discarded. The words that are engraved in the pen will remain alive and beautiful for many years, just as the pen itself will retain its original elegance for decades. That's why they are such a popular, and effective, gift for key moments in life, whether that's graduation from university, confirmation, the first day at work, or marriage. They may be underrated in some ways, but premium engraved pens are gifts for life, and a fine option to think about if you have a major occasion on the horizon.

The benefits of buying an engraved pen

Engraving is much more than just a little extra touch on the side. It can become a crucial element of a pen that you use every day for your entire life, and it has plenty of benefits which make it a very appealing option. For instance:

  • Engraved messages add a powerful personal touch, which establishes a connection between the person giving the pen, and the recipient, which can be useful for business and social relationships.
  • There is something wonderful and romantic about giving an inscribed luxury pen to the one you love, whether that's as a wedding gift, Valentine's keepsake, or 'just because'.
  • Engraved pens are classic, traditional gifts that have the gravitas to work well during special occasions like weddings and confirmations. If you are looking for a gift that will make the right impression, they could well be ideal.
  • The right engraving can enhance the aesthetic appeal of designer pens, turning what is already a very beautiful work of art, into something truly stunning and personal.
  • With your name engraved on a luxury pen, you won't need to worry so much about losing it when using it in meetings or lecture theatres. If you misplace the pen and somebody picks it up, they will instantly know that it belongs to you.
  • Engravings are a long-term decorative element. They will last a lifetime, providing the joy of seeing a beautiful message whenever you use your treasured pen.

As you can see, engraving is something that all luxury pen buyers should consider adding to their purchase. It's not a necessity, but it's certainly a beautiful personal touch.

With Penoblo, you can add the message you desire, safe in the knowledge that the techniques used will be the most advanced available, and that they will be carried out by masters of the engraving craft.
