Art Engravers

Incredible craftsmanship, speedy turnaround time and great deal. My fiancé was given his father’s wedding band and will be using it for his band. It was engraved in 1961 when his mom gave it to his dad and when I brought to Art Engravers, they were able to match the script perfectly with our initials and wedding date. such a great deal and it was done the very next day — would go to them again in a heartbeat!

Awesome. If you’re in the Loop area, you should not use any other engraver. Fantastic work and service!

Shoot, it’s been awhile since I’ve written a review. Let’s get back into the swing of things here.
Scene: My fiancé and I about to be married on February 7, 2014, and we’re to leave the Chicago area on a flight by January 31. Her wedding band came engraved from James Allen. I got my wedding band elsewhere, and had procrastinated for weeks. No, more like months. It’s January 27, and I start panicking, just a bit.
A few calls here and there to places in Milwaukee (my current city), and no real luck. Finally, I call my jeweler friend who is more of a designer and ask for suggestions. Without thinking, she says, «Yeah, call Art Engravers» just across the street from me…
A rt Engravers is located at 29 E Madison in an unassuming building.
R ight as you walk in, go straight towards the elevator and hit Lucky 13.
T hat’s right, this building actually has a 13^th floor even though it’s historical!
E ngraving «Changberg» inside my wedding band was simple for the guy.
N ot to mention, pretty cheap.
G oodness gracious, he was done in less than 24 hours, and did it for 15 $.
R eally friendly guy who looks comical since he’s usually got his jewelers glasses on
A ctually — he does a lot more than just rings. Also does awards, plaques, trophies
V erily (hey, V words are hard, ok?), I’ll have some nice knives engraved as well
E xcellent work, though my experience is limited only to engraving a ring.
R eally responsive, and also quite affordable.
S uper experience, will be back soon.

Skip the jewelers, and go right to the source. Most Jewelers do engraving themselves at a higher cost, or send their work to Art Engravers and charge you a mark up. A nice jeweler gave me the referral. Ive had wedding cake knives and a ring engraved. Good work for honest rates. Nice guy too.

I went to Art Engravers to have some names engraved for business card holders to give as gifts. Art was very friendly and offered good advice in terms of placement of writing. His work was top quality and very reasonably priced. The turn around time was very fast and the work was beautifully done.

When it came time to pick out rings for our wedding, a friend recommended Art Engravers to us. We had an idea of what we wanted to do but weren’t sure if it could be done or how to approach the situation. The challenge … was to get something to match the engagement ring I gave to me soon to be wife & have something made for her to compliment the engagement ring.
The engagement ring was Celtic knot work. Leo (owner) referred me to a fellow jeweler within the Jeweler’s Row building who specialized in Celtic designs and she had one that was perfect so I purchased that from her.
While this was going on, Leo was designing something for my wife. They came up w/​delicate bands that would «lock» into both sides of the engagement ring. Maybe a week later we picked up the custom bands & they were awesome.
We had a great experience w/​Art Engravers. The service, the pricing and the quality helped ease some of the pre-​wedding stress.

I’ve been using Art Engravers for over 20 years and I’ve always found them to be Great! The prices are very reasonable and the quality impeccable. I’ve used them for engravings, creating original pieces of jewelry, & estimates. They are very accommodating to the customers’ timetable and needs. I’ve recommended them to several of my friends over the years and they’ve all been very happy with the work they had done.

I was extremely disappointed in the engraving… I won’t bother going into the multitude of slights to craftsmanship… but, the fact that cup’s decorative box was covered with soiled fingerprints is indicative to the care taken in the work.
