Seal Engraving Specialists in London, UK
At Mayfair Goldsmiths, we specialise in traditional seal engraving – the fine, hand-cut work that turns a ring into a signature. From family crests and monograms to seals and artwork, we engrave each piece by hand in our Mayfair workshop, using the same techniques that have defined British craftsmanship for centuries.
Our seal engravers produce work for private clients across London, the wider UK and internationally. Most come to us through referral – tailors on Savile Row, heritage jewellers, families with long-standing crests, or simply people looking to create something unique, whether it’s a new signet ring or an antique being redefined.
Expert Hand Engraving
We use a traditional reverse scoop cut for seal engraving, carving directly into gold or silver to produce a mirrored relief that makes a clean wax impression. Every cut is done by hand, with years of experience and understanding behind it.
Seal engraving is a specialist skill, and each commission is treated with the attention it deserves. We don’t rush the process, and we don’t outsource it. It’s all done here, in London, by a team that knows what they’re doing.
