A time-tested method for engraving crystal, glass and marble to produce a deep etched look, it is assisted by digital technology but still done by hand. It involves developing a mask for the custom artwork, protecting the award, and then blasting thousands of tiny sand particles in a uniform pattern to produce superior depth and consistency. While some engravers will use lasers, we do not use this shortcut because of the inconsistency caused by the heat, which sometimes fractures the glass/crystal and produces an inconsistent engraving.
