The Story Behind the Design

Named after the infamous deadly nightshade, Belladonna is a poison with a history as rich as it is dark — once used in tonics, tinctures, and questionable beauty rituals. This engraved whisky glass channels that blend of danger and elegance, with ornate filigree detailing and a satin-smooth finish that feels as mysterious as the name itself. Designed to intrigue, it brings a touch of the macabre to any drink.

What Makes It Special

  • Etched with “Belladonna” in a vintage poison label design
  • Individually hand-engraved using traditional sandblasting
  • Permanent satin-style finish – won’t wash off or fade
  • Heavy-based tumbler for stability and satisfying weight
  • Optional reverse-side personalisation
  • Thoughtfully tissue-wrapped and presented in a gift box

Perfect For

  • Lovers of gothic design, vintage medical curiosities, or dark history
  • Barware collectors seeking a unique centrepiece
  • Themed parties, Halloween, or alternative weddings
  • Whisky fans with a bold or mischievous streak

Engraving & Personalisation

Maximum characters: 30

Complimentary engraving includes up to 30 characters placed on the same side as the design. We always aim for a layout that balances beautifully and suits the shape of the glass, but final positioning is at the discretion of the studio.

If you'd like to go beyond the complimentary allowance, additional characters are charged at 30p each. Contact Us for more details.

Before engraving begins, you’ll receive an email with a digital proof of your layout. Please check all spelling, dates, names, punctuation, and design placement carefully.

As each piece is engraved to your specification, personalised orders cannot be returned once artwork has been approved.

Traditional Sandblast Engraving

For over four decades, every glass that leaves our studio has been engraved using a time-honoured sandblasting technique, a craft rooted in precision, patience, and the belief that meaningful gifts deserve more than a quick machine-made mark. Unlike surface printing or shallow laser etching, sandblast engraving cuts softly into the glass to create a deep, permanent finish with a beautifully tactile feel. It’s the reason our designs look crisp from every angle and remain flawless for a lifetime.

  1. Artwork Refined With Care

    Your chosen design or personalisation is transformed into precise vector artwork, a format that captures every fine line, curve, and serif. This allows us to prepare an engraving layout that balances perfectly on the shape of the glass. Whether it’s a portrait, a crest, or a message, every element is positioned by hand to ensure it sits naturally within the piece.

  2. Creating the Single-Use Stencil

    The artwork is then transferred onto a specialist stencil using UV exposure. Each stencil is created for one single engraving only, never reused, which means the edges remain sharp and the details stay crisp. The stencil is carefully hand-applied and burnished onto the glass to protect every area that should remain clear.

  3. Hand-Engraved Using Fine Aluminium Oxide

    The glass is taken into the blasting cabinet, where a controlled stream of fine aluminium oxide gently cuts into the exposed areas of the surface. This stage is done entirely by hand, allowing us to deepen lines, soften shading, and shape textures in a way machines simply cannot replicate. Each piece takes time — but the result is unmistakable: a smooth satin finish with real depth and character.

  4. Finishing, Polishing & Inspection

    Once engraved, the stencil is removed and the glass is thoroughly cleaned and polished to reveal the final detail. Every piece is then checked for balance, clarity, depth and alignment. Only when it meets our studio’s standards is it gift-boxed and ready to become part of someone’s story.

Sandblast engraving has been at the heart of our work since 1982. It remains the most beautiful and enduring method of personalising glass, a blend of heritage craft and modern precision. From small keepsakes to intricate commissions, every piece is made by hand, one at a time, from our studio in Fife.
