Engraving Your Wedding Bands?
New Technology Creates Romantic Possibilities
By, Jerry Biern of
Wedding Vow Rings
What is more romantic than looking inside of your wedding band
and seeing a personalized engraving with special meaning for the
you and your spouse?
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.
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.
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 engraving civil vows, religious vows, love
poetry, even Shakesperean sonnets.
This sentimental and romantic addition to your wedding bands can
forever be a reminder of the commitments made, and add a special
and unique touch to your wedding day.
