Functional Engraved Labels

Engraved Labels 34

To be honest, most engraved labels are functional and ubiquitous – we take them for what they are and no more than that. In fact I dare say most of us read the information and forget the label itself after a minute or two.

But isn’t that the point?

These engraved labels convey the information and that is all they’re supposed to do. They’re not supposed to be fancy, polished, decorative, or anything more than a label.

Assuming you know this, you can appreciate them for the work that has gone into them – the font is clear and legible, the labels are unobtrusive and functional, and they come in a wide variety of colours and materials. Perfect for so many jobs!

Engraved Brass Plaque

Although brass plaques are something that we do a lot of, this one stands out because of the additional colours. The engraving we normally do is lettering which we paint-fill black, but here there was some extra additions in the form of the flower.

The plaques that we do, no matter what material we create them from be it brass, aluminium, stainless steel etc., are usually fitted to a wooden plinth. Customers get a choice of material for the plinth from a variety of woods.

They look good when mounted on a wall and last for many years.

This one however is more of a specialist no smoking sign. Made from it is more expensive of course and instead of vinyl or , it is an , and gives a more upscale appearance to the no smoking prohibition. Perhaps a customer wants a sign that will stand the test of time (and weather) if it is placed outside?
