Type your words exactly as they should be engraved, accents included (Nonna, Abuela, Lola, Babcia, Oma). We engrave them as written.

Live preview. We lay your words out neatly on the crystal.

  • Videos are private: only someone with the box or its private link can watch
  • Engraving in English or your family's language: Italian, Spanish, Tagalog, Polish, German, Irish, Greek and more
  • Only 240 made this Christmas
  • Each ornament is made to order with your names, so we can't accept change-of-mind returns. If anything arrives faulty or damaged, we'll replace it.
