Pint Glasses

Pint glasses offer a tall, structured surface for engraving, with a vertical profile that supports clear, well-spaced compositions.
The height of the glass allows designs to be positioned cleanly within the visible area, making it well suited to names, dates, and simple line work.
Engraved by hand in our Fife studio, each piece is prepared to maintain clarity and proportion across the full height of the glass.

From Artwork to Engraving

Each commission follows the same studio process, from artwork preparation and proof approval through to hand sandblasting and finishing in our Fife workshop.

The Story Behind the Collection

The upright form of a pint glass naturally lends itself to centred or vertically aligned layouts, where spacing and legibility are key.
Designs are adjusted to suit the taper and viewing angle, ensuring the engraving remains clear both in use and at rest.
The result is a balanced composition that sits comfortably within the height and structure of the glass.
