With the potential growth of the personalized gift market sitting at over 7 billion USD from 2020-2024, it should come as no surprise that laser engraved gifts are becoming increasingly popular.
Are you on the hunt for a meaningful gist? Laser engraving for jewelry can take even the most generic pieces to the next level.
Here are our top laser engraving ideas to make your loved ones feel special (or to spoil yourself with!).
Memorable Dates
Some dates have more meaning than others. Whether it’s a birth date, anniversary, or the date of a loved one’s passing, laser engraving is a perfect way to commemorate a significant time in your life:
- Roman numerals
- Birth flower
- Star sign symbol
- Star sign constellation
Combining these ideas results in gorgeous and purposeful designs you can carry with you wherever you go. Because laser engraved jewelry is incredibly durable it’s suitable for everyday wear.
Important People
You can always find more ways to customize your existing jewelry collection or introduce new, personalized pieces. Use custom engraved jewelry to celebrate the influential people in your life with the following ideas:
- Duotone portrait
- Line drawing portrait
- Initials
- Group or team name
- Best (teacher, dad, friend, etc.) ever
- A heartbeat line
- A word or sentence is written in their handwriting
- Favorite bird, animal, plant, hobby, etc.
With a laser cutter and engraver, jewelry makers can achieve incredible levels of detail. Even a family portrait can fit on a small pendant, so you don’t end up with unnecessarily bulky jewelry.
You can create stunning graphics by combining a few of these ideas into one design. For example, you could celebrate a friendship anniversary with matching engraved rings with each others’ initials and favorite flowers.
Lasting Locations
Any place that holds precious memories for you is a wonderful place to draw inspiration from. This could be your hometown, the beach where you had your favorite childhood vacation, your honeymoon destination, or even the city where your child was born.
Visually pinpoint important locations on your jewelry by laser engraving:
- GPS coordinates
- Silhouette of a mountain range
- City skyline
- Address
- Three words for any location
- The shape of a continent, country, etc.
Whatever the reason a place is important to you, you can commemorate it with a custom laser engraving on any piece of jewelry!
Wondrous Words
They say a picture is worth 1000 words, but sometimes a sentence is the only thing that accurately conveys the emotion you’re looking for.
Jewelry is the ideal canvas for any of the following:
- Song lyrics
- Quote from a favorite book, poem, or movie
- Significant word (trust, hope, bravery, wanderer, dream, etc.)
- Affirmations
- Names and nicknames
We recommend sticking to bracelets for longer sentences as they have the most room to play around with. Rings and necklaces can comfortably fit one-three words, depending on their size and length.
For a more delicate look, you can individually laser engrave the letters of a word onto dainty charms for a necklace or bracelet.
