Engraved Glass Giftware:
Timeless Keepsakes You Can Personalise
(With Beautiful Gift Boxes, Too)
If you’re hunting for a present that feels thoughtful, looks luxurious, and lasts for years, engraved glass giftware is a winner. From whisky tumblers and champagne flutes to vases and paperweights, glass gifts balance everyday usefulness with “wow” factor. Add a personal engraving and a premium gift box and you’ve got a keepsake they’ll treasure—not just another thing to dust.
Why Choose Engraved Glass?
-
It’s personal: Names, dates, locations, even a short quote or inside joke turns a lovely object into their lovely object.
-
It feels premium: Quality glass has a satisfying weight and sparkle that photographs beautifully and impresses in person.
-
It lasts: Unlike flowers or chocolate, glass endures—so your message does, too.
-
Versatile for any occasion: Birthdays, weddings, new homes, retirements, graduations, thank-yous, corporate awards…the list goes on.
Personalisation Options (Make It Uniquely Theirs)
-
Text engraving: Add a name, date, monogram, coordinates, or a short message (we recommend 40–60 characters for best readability).
-
Fonts & layouts: Choose from elegant scripts, clean modern sans-serifs, or classic serif fonts. We’ll centre and size your text for perfect balance.
-
Motifs & icons: Hearts, rings, laurels, stars, paw prints—subtle icons can complete the design without overcrowding.
-
Logos & crests: Ideal for corporate gifting or clubs. Provide a high-resolution black-and-white file for the crispest results.
-
Proofing: We provide a digital proof on request so you can approve the layout before we engrave.
Pro tip: Keep it short and meaningful. On a whisky tumbler, for example, “Dad – Established 1975” often looks cleaner than a long paragraph.
Our Favourite Gift Ideas
-
For celebrations: Champagne flutes engraved with the couple’s surname and wedding date.
-

For whisky lovers: Heavy-base tumblers with initials or a short toast.
-
For milestones: Decanters engraved with a retirement date, graduation year, or team achievement.
Add a Gift Box to Any Product (Highly Recommended)
Presentation matters. Every engraved piece can be upgraded with a premium gift box:
-
Polished look: Rigid board, soft lining, and a snug fit protect the glass and elevate the unboxing moment.
-
Ready-to-give: Add a gift message card at checkout—no last-minute wrapping required.
-
Safer shipping: Extra protection reduces the risk of transit damage.
Choose “Add gift box” on the product page—simple as that.
How to Pick the Right Piece
-
Match the moment: Flutes for celebrations, decanters for statement gifts, tumblers for everyday enjoyment.
-
Consider capacity & shape: Larger bowls for aerating wine, heavier bases for spirits.
-
Think display vs. daily use: Paperweights and vases tend to “live” on desks and mantelpieces; glasses get loved (and washed) often.
-
Plan the engraving: Short text, clear font, and good spacing make all the difference.
Quality That Shows
We use precision engraving for a permanent, frosted finish that won’t peel or fade. Each piece is inspected before dispatch, and personalised items are handled by our specialist team from proof to polish.
Care Tips for Engraved Glass
-
Hand-wash or use the top rack on gentle cycles.
-
Avoid abrasive pads—microfibre is best.
-
Dry with a lint-free cloth to keep that crystal shine.
