Inside Ring Inscriptions
Personalize the Inside of Your Band With Heartfelt Words
An inside ring inscription is one of the most personal details you can add to a custom ring. Hidden against the skin, your message becomes a private reminder of the love, promise, memory, or milestone your ring represents. Whether you choose a wedding date, initials, a meaningful phrase, a line in your own handwriting, or a symbol only the two of you understand, an inscription turns your ring into something unmistakably yours.
At Krikawa, we offer several inside inscription options depending on your ring design, band width, message length, and preferred style. From simple machine-inscribed dates to crisp laser engraving, traditional hand engraving, or custom modeled lettering and symbols, we can help you choose the best method for your message and your ring.

Modeled Engraving
Laser Engraving (High Detail)
With state-of-the-art laser technology, inscriptions are crisp and more complex. Laser engraving is perfect for messages on narrow bands (2mm wide) and complex or sculptural ring designs with limited engraving area.
Laser engraving of any true-type font with more than 15 letters, symbols, or your own handwriting starts at $220.
Any true-type font with only 15 letters or fewer starts at $150.
Modeled Engraving (Bold)
Make a bold statement with words, numbers, symbols, or images, featuring modeled engraving on the inside of your custom ring. Pricing typically ranges from $100 to $300 for alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9). Alternative alphabets (like Elvish), foreign alphabets, emojis, or black-and-white images may be modeled or engraved; send us your desired inscription, and we will provide a quote. (Additional charges apply for converting color images to usable black/white line drawings.) Recommended for rings 3mm and up.
Fonts
For modeled and laser engraving, font choice helps determine both the look and readability of your inside ring inscription. We offer a curated selection of inscription-friendly fonts, including:
- Cambria for a classic serif style.
- Optima for a refined modern look.
- Segoe Script for a casual handwritten feel.
- Monotype Corsiva for an elegant script.
- Alex Script for a romantic, flowing style.
Laser engraving offers the most flexibility and can often accommodate additional TrueType fonts, symbols, special characters, and even your own handwriting, depending on the available space inside the ring.
Modeled engraving creates a bolder, more dimensional inscription and may be recommended, or sometimes required, for certain ring designs, wider bands, or sculptural interiors. We are happy to review your desired inscription and help determine which engraving method and font will give you the clearest and most beautiful result.
Hand Engraved Letters
Hand engraving the inside of a ring is performed by a professional hand engraver, who will carefully carve your message using hand-held tools. Hand-engraving is suitable for rings at least 2mm in width or when you want that truly personal touch. Because it is labor-intensive, hand engraving starts at $400, plus a $100 setup fee.
Inside Ring Inscriptions Visibility
With narrow bands or lengthy messages compressed into a small space, an inscription can sometimes be difficult to read or require magnification to see clearly. However, as the message is dear to your heart, you will know what it says and means, even without magnification. Keep this in mind when choosing your message.
