How can I have a personal engraving made in a ring?

How can I have a personal engraving made in a ring? That is a question many people ask themselves when they wish to add an extra dimension of personality and meaning to their jewelry. An engraving is not just a decoration – it is a memory, a declaration of love, or a symbol of an important event in life.

At Viclara, we love helping you create jewelry that tells your own unique story. And often, a personal engraving is the little work of art that makes a ring unforgettable.

Why choose a personal engraving

Engravings suit every purpose and life event – whether it’s a wedding, engagement, anniversary, or simply a special moment. When you choose to have something personal engraved in the ring, it transforms from a piece of jewelry into a lasting symbol – it can be a date, a name, coordinates, or a personal message.

At Viclara, we believe that the story hides in the details. An engraved ring often becomes a meaningful heirloom and a memory you carry with you every single day.

What engraving options do you have?

If you’re asking: How can I have a personal engraving made in a ring?, it’s not only about ‘how’ – but also about ‘what’. There are several different engraving options, each offering a special expression.

Laser engraving

Laser engraving is a precise and modern technique, which makes it possible to create sharp, detailed engravings both inside and outside the ring. It is suitable for everything from symbols and coordinates to initials and small quotes – and is therefore ideal for wedding rings and marking important occasions.

Manual engraving

With manual engraving, the text is hand-carved by a goldsmith. This gives a more organic and authentic expression, which is perfect for those who want a personal touch with soul and character. Each line bears the mark of human craftsmanship.

Handwriting engraving

The most intimate form of engraving is to reproduce handwriting from a loved one – for example, a handwritten “I love you” or a signature. This creates an irreplaceable connection between giver and recipient and makes the ring a deeply personal treasure.

If you are unsure which engraving method best suits your ring and message, we are happy to advise you personally.

What should the engraving say?

It’s not the length of the text, but the meaning behind it, that makes the engraving unique. Consider what message, feeling, or memory you want to express. Here are some popular ideas:

• Names or initials
• Important dates (engagement day, wedding day, child’s birth)
• Geographical coordinates of a special place
• Classic quotes or short, personal phrases
• Endearing nicknames or discreet symbols

Font choice – create the right expression

The font of the text is very important for how the engraving is experienced. The font should both fit the text and harmonize with the design of the ring. Here are some font types to consider:

• Serif fonts – create a classic, timeless look and are ideal for a traditional aesthetic.
• Script fonts – resemble handwriting and provide a romantic and soft look, perfect for love declarations.
• Sans serif fonts – simple and modern fonts that work well for minimalist designs and messages.

At Viclara, we help you choose a font that is both aesthetically beautiful and technically suitable for your chosen ring.

Where on the ring can you have an engraving made?

The placement of the engraving is just as important as the content. There are primarily two options:

• Internal engraving: Discreet and valuable. Perfect for personal messages known only to you and the recipient.
• External engraving: Can be part of the ring’s design. Well-suited for simple, elegant rings with room for a clear inscription.

We always assess individually what is technically and aesthetically possible, so you get a result that completes your jewelry.
