Our story

The hands behind the mark

We love creating something out of nothing — turning a blank piece of wood, glass or leather into a keepsake you'll want to keep forever. With over six years behind the CNC laser and a steady hand for the fine detail, every portrait and personalised piece leaves our Tzaneen workshop built to last.

Good to know

Questions we hear often

When does my order actually get made?
Manufacturing begins the moment we receive your full payment. We don't start cutting or engraving on a partial deposit — once the balance is settled, your piece goes straight into the queue.
Do you deliver outside Tzaneen?
Yes — we provide service anywhere in South Africa. Your piece is couriered to your door, with an extra fee added for courier services.
Can I have something engraved that isn't a portrait?
Absolutely. We do personalised engraving on glass, wood, leather and trophies. If you have something specific in mind, send us a message and we'll tell you what's possible.
How do I pay for my order?
You can pay by bank transfer (EFT) or PayShap. We'll send you the details once your order is confirmed, and manufacturing starts as soon as the full payment reflects.
What are your workshop hours?
Our doors are open Saturday and Sunday, 08:30 to 12:00. You're welcome to visit the workshop in Tzaneen during those hours — or reach us any day by phone or WhatsApp.
