A branded item tells someone where it came from.
A personalized gift tells them it was made for them.

Luxury Corporate & Executive Gifts
When you're gifting executives, leadership teams, VIP clients or important business partners, the product should feel appropriate for the relationship.
We help curate premium and luxury corporate gifts and determine how branding can be incorporated without making a beautiful product feel overly promotional.

Personalization can include an employee's name, initials or other individual details, while company branding can be incorporated where appropriate.
Logo Engraving, Debossing & Custom Branding
Not every product should be customized the same way.
We choose the personalization method based on the material, product, quantity, brand aesthetic and desired finish.
Engraving
Ideal for many metal, glass and hard-surface products.
Logos, names, initials and other designs can be engraved depending on the item.
Debossing
A subtle, elevated option for many leather and leather-like products. A logo, initials or design is pressed into the material for a clean, understated finish.
Hot Foiling
Add metallic personalization to compatible products using finishes such as gold or silver foil.
Hand Personalization
For select projects, calligraphy, hand lettering, painting, hand engraving and custom artwork can create an even more individual finish.
