Jewellers
Precision marking and laser setups for Irish jewellers.
We engrave on precious metals for established jewellers, and we help studios bring the right xTool laser in-house when the volume warrants it. Two services, one practitioner, no contradictions.

Frequently asked
- Which xTool laser is right for jewellery work?
- For precious metals, the F2 Ultra Dual is the strongest fit — the 60W MOPA fibre source handles maker's marks, fine artwork, and colour marking on titanium and stainless. The F2 Ultra UV suits plating-friendly low-heat surface marking and resin or gemstone-set pieces that can't take heat.
- Can I engrave inside rings on the F2 Ultra?
- Yes, with the rotary attachment. We commission rotary setups regularly for jewellers — we'll dial in focus, jig the ring, and prove repeatability on your test pieces before sign-off.
- Is the F2 Ultra suitable for hallmarking?
- It is well suited to maker's marks, house marks and bespoke interior inscriptions, with legibility proved on your own stock during commissioning. It does not replace official hallmarking by the Assay Office.
- Will laser marking damage gemstones?
- Fibre lasers near a set stone carry thermal risk. For stone-set pieces we either mask carefully, mark before setting, or use the UV source which runs cold. This is exactly the kind of judgement we cover in a commissioning session.
- Do I need extraction for jewellery work?
- Yes. Even cold UV marking benefits from light extraction; fibre marking on plated metals demands proper filtration. We specify and install extraction as part of any commissioning brief.
- Can you help me choose, install, and learn the machine?
- That's exactly what the xTool Expertise side of the studio exists for. Pre-purchase consultation, on-site commissioning, and one-to-one training are all bookable separately.
