    The vast majority of our pens are engraved using a fiber optic or CO2 Laser Engraving Machine. They offer precise and permanent engraving that will never fade or wear off the pen. Unlike imprinting or pad printing, engraving will last forever.

    Some of our Cross pens offer deep cut color filled engraving. This process is similar to using a small mechanical router to cut into the pen finish. As a final step, we put the color of your choice in the grooves, polish it up, and ship it to you.
      Free standard engraving includes 1 line engraved on cap of the pen, up to 30 characters per line in one of our standard fonts.
      Standard engraving production time is 2 business days. Please note that production time does not include shipping transit time.

      If you need a pen quickly, please shop from our Rush Page. These pens have a 1 day engraving upgrade option available and will ship out within 1 business day by the shipping method of your choosing.
      The standard engraving location for our pens is on the broad side of the cap, visible when held by a right handed person.

      We do offer a second line or second location on some pens; however, it is dependent on the surface of the pen. If you have any questions about this, please contact us.

      If the product accommodates two sided engraving, the second location for $3.99 per line. On most pens the second location will be the back side of the cap.

      If you need this, please email us.
      In general on bare metals, like the silver, chrome, and gold finishes the laser engraving will appear a brass or light gold tone-on-tone. This style is more subtle.

      The engraving decoration appears in the color that results from the laser interacting with the metal and this can vary slightly from pen to pen. Our product images are the closest representation of the final product.

      On a coated metal pen, like a Black barrel, the engraving color will be described on the product page.

      On pens that are deep cut engraved, we will use color fill in the engraving so it will match your requested color.

Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
