Your photo on slate
Your own photo, laser etched onto natural slate, with a wooden stand. 200 x 150mm, £45.
Not every photo etches well, so we'll check yours first. Just fill in the form, then reply to the confirmation email with your photo attached, or send a few if you can't choose. If your phone asks, choose "Actual Size" so we get the best quality. We'll tell you honestly how they'll look, and if one is suitable, we'll send you a link to pay securely by card.
Clear, well-lit photos with faces large in the frame work best.
We aim to complete photo etchings within 7 working days of payment, but at busy times it may take longer. We'll let you know as soon as yours is ready to collect. Need it by a particular date? Please ring 07624 495664 and we'll tell you whether we can meet it.
Wrapped and ready to give
Everything ordered online between 1 November and 17 December, including all our coasters, comes wrapped in brown paper and tied with linen thread, then sealed with cream sealing wax.
A card tucked under the thread tells you whose gift it is and what's inside, so you can tell them apart if you're buying several.
We photograph each piece before we wrap it, and email you the photo when it's ready to collect, so you can see your gift without unwrapping it.
Come and see us
We'll be at the Pooil Vaaish Early Christmas Market at the Comis Hotel on Saturday 7 November, with plenty to see and pick up.
