Hot foil calligraphy is a technique used to personalize and embellish leather goods by applying metallic or pigmented foil to the surface using a heat pen.

Hot foil works best on leather surfaces such as wallets, luggage tags, passport holders, jewellery boxes, and more. We recommend smooth, non-textured leather for the best results.

Occasionally, hot foil works on wooden goods, fabric and rubber, such as yoga mats.

Unfortunately, hot foil calligraphy is limited in terms of the materials it can adhere to. Materials like fabric, suede, velvet or rough leather may not be suitable for hot foil application. Additionally, we may not be able to engrave on certain materials or items depending on their thickness, texture, or shape. If you have any questions about whether your specific item can be engraved, please contact us, and we'll be happy to assist you.

Yes, we require clients to provide the item(s) they wish to have engraved. This ensures that you receive the exact product you desire and can verify its quality before sending it to us. For your convenience, you can order the item(s) online and have them shipped directly to our studio.

The turnaround time for custom hot foil calligraphy orders is typically 7-10 business days from the time we receive your items, confirmed design and payment.

You can include a wide range of information in your engraving, depending on the available space on the item and the complexity of the design. Common engraving options include: names, initials, dates, and short messages.

We recommend keeping the engraving concise and meaningful to ensure readability and aesthetic appeal. If you have a specific idea in mind, please discuss it with us, and we'll help you create a beautiful and personalized engraving.

It depends on the complexity of your design or logo. While we can work with custom designs, please keep in mind that due to the hand-engraved nature of our services, we may not be able to replicate your design with 100% accuracy. We will do our best to capture the essence and style of your design, but slight variations may occur. If you have a specific design in mind, please contact us with an image file (PNG, JPG, or AI), and we'll assess its feasibility for engraving.
