Gift ideas for the season
What to engrave for Deepavali
All of these can be personalised at the station with a name, a date, a short message or your logo:
- Tumblers and thermal flasks, a favourite for staff and guests.
- Business card holders and metal pens for clients and partners.
- Wood and acrylic keepsakes (selected acrylic) with a name and a Deepavali greeting.
We engrave on metal (stainless steel, aluminium), wood, and selected types of leather and acrylic. The engraving is permanent, not a sticker or a print.
A thoughtful touch: some Hindu guests avoid leather and beef products, so for Deepavali we suggest metal, wood or acrylic items rather than leather.
