Who is an engraved writing instrument suitable for?
An engraved writing instrument is suitable as a gift for business partners, colleagues or friends. For example, for a promotion, a successfully concluded contract or to sign at the registry office. Writing instruments are usually engraved with the name or initials of the recipient. However, short messages can also be engraved. The engraving turns the gift into something personal that will be remembered every time it is used.

Where is the engraving positioned?
The engraving is either placed on the clip or on the side of the cap. Up to 10 characters are possible on the clip and up to 18 characters on the cap. We also take your writing hand into account. The following examples show how the engravings differ for right and left-handers.
How long does an engraving last?
That depends on the material being engraved. Engravings on metal do not wear out and last a lifetime. For engravings on precious resin or ABS plastic, we usually work with what is known as an inlay paste. This is applied in a color that matches the clip of the writing instrument. This makes the engraving clearly visible. After several hours of drying, a quick polish is applied and the engraving is finished. The lining paste can wear off after several years of use. Recoloring is possible without any problems.
