Can I Personalize a Piece of Nambé That I Already Own?
What Does It Mean to Personalize an Item?
Personalization is the process of adding your own words or designs to your Nambé purchase, such as a monogram, a date, or a brief message that makes your gift absolutely memorable.
Most Nambé Alloy and Nambé Crystal items can be personalized. Our crystal items are personalized through a process called laser etching, which produces a result very similar to sandblasting. We create a high resolution image of your message and turn it over to our personalization experts, who use a computerized laser to create your message onto the surface of your Nambé purchase. For our Nambé Alloy products, the laser etch process is followed by sandblasting for impressively sharp edges.
