Do you offer a Personalisation Service?

Yes we do, we offer an engraving service on certain items that are suitable for engraving. This is a great idea to offer a unique and special gift for an upcoming event; Wedding, Engagement, Anniversary, Graduation, Retirement, Corporate Gifts, Birthday, New Baby or Christening

Our Engraving service takes 3-5 days for small orders and for larger orders over 10 items it can take 1 week. Delivery time is then added onto this.

If you would like you get an item engraved and pick it up instead of delivery then please choose click & collect under delivery options when placing the order.

Do you send on artwork for engraving orders?

Yes we can send on artwork of what the engraving will look like prior to engraving but we can't show you what it will look like on the item until after it has been engraved. The artwork will show you the style of writing that will be used.

Can you engrave photographs on your products?

Yes we can engrave photographs on certain items like vases or plates. Photographs need a large amount of space to show all the detail so they can't be engraved on smaller items.

How much is the Engraving Charge?

The engraving charge is €20 and it is automatically included for all products in the personalisation section.

Do you offer Click & Collect?

Yes we do, our click & collect pickup up point is the reception desk just inside the entrance door. You will receive an email when your order is available for collection. Remember engraving orders take 2-3 days so these orders will not be available to collect straight away. If you have an urgent order please call us on 091757311 and will try and accommodate you.

I have chipped glasses, can these be repaired?

Yes, we can repair glasses that are chipped around the rim. This normally takes 1-2 days and price will be calculated in our showroom. Unfortunately we can't repair glasses that have been completely broken, we only repair chips.
