I really like the jewelry lettering technique I work with. It may look like a knit, but there are endless possibilities. As much as I would like to, I can't really find a Hungarian equivalent for it, so I always use the term 'metal stamping'.

When I came up with the idea that I wanted to make jewelry, I was immediately captivated by the appearance of the pendants decorated with this technique. From there it was just one step - well, two - and I ordered the first typeface to start practicing with. Little by little, with a lot of damage and a lot of practice, I learned how to use the hammers, how hard to hit with the hammer and how the material of the pendant behaves in this case. Later, I added another typeface to my set and I had to realize that for each type, the letters have to be placed next to each other in a different way, in order to have an inscription that is really beautiful. I learned how to label without a scale so that the characters fit together as nicely as possible.

It was exciting to order each new sample, and over time, I also designed and had my own unique beaters manufactured. This is no different now, I am trying to expand my repertoire of available fonts and creative patterns so that more diverse and unique jewelry can be created.
This lettering is different from the widespread hand or machine engraving. Some important differences in which metal stamping is unique compared to engraving:
- With this technique, a structure is created on the surface of the jewelry, thanks to the depth of the letters and patterns, which is created as a result of the impact. This will make your appearance very special.
- If the inscription is placed on a gilded pendant, the gilding is not damaged, the pattern is visible in the same color as the pendant. This is often not the case with engraving, as the gold layer is left behind.
- There are many beautiful fonts and patterns to choose from, but no two inscriptions will ever be the same, unlike machine engraving. This also gives extra uniqueness to your jewelry.
I am constantly working to make your jewelry tell your story as uniquely as possible. Show your beautiful memories in a unique way. So that you can wear it with pride and be sure that there is no other piece like the one adorning you now.
