Gifts are offered for various reasons according to one’s mood, condition, occasion and obligation every year by many. We often give gifts to re-confirm or establish our connection with others, which means that they're a reflection of both the giver and the receiver, as well as their unique relationship. Giving a gift to someone we care about allows us to communicate our feelings and appreciation for them.

But, there are some rules that you need to observe when trying to offer a gift to someone. Try to offer them something they want, something they need, something to wear, something to read, something that last and a special gift.

On the other hand, to make your gifts special and unique many people turn to add a little bit of personalisation or engraving to it.

Engraving or personnalisation is simply a print made from an engraved plate, block, or other surface. It can also be the practice of cutting a design into a hard surface. Generally, anything can be engrave that is, metal, wood, glass, plastic, leather, fiber, steel and so on.

Most at times, when people buy articles either online or onsite, they turn to add their own personnalisations or engraving. For example, a person buying a jewelry necklace chain on Beteck, may want to add a name or date on the article either as hand or laser engraving.

Hand engraving is the oldest and most traditional method for engraving which involves a highly skilled craftsman using a selection of handheld tools. In the olden days, one will use stone to mark another stone. Examples of hand engraving includes creating text on jewellery, such as pendants or on the inside of engagement- and wedding rings to include text such as the name of the partner, or adding a winner's name to a sports trophy. 

A laser engraving is again broader than this. Laser engraving is doing the same process with a super-focused beam of light. Laser engraving is the practice of using lasers (machinery) instead of your own hand to engrave an object. It’s somehow a subtractive manufacturing approach. The word "laser" is actually the abbreviation of "Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. With laser engraving, you can engrave quality photos, logos and text with beautiful fonts on your objects.

Now, you may be asking yourself, between hand engraving and laser engraving which one is best for gifts? It depends on each other taste and specifications. Laser engraving is typically faster to engrave than hand engraving.

If you’re looking for an old-fashioned and craftsman to engrave with hand not machinery that is without virtual design, you should opt for hand engraving in your gifting choice.

While on the other hand, if you’re looking at something at a virtual art engraving that comprises of your preferred font types, graphics and illustrations, then opt for laser engraving.
