We can laser-etch a name, initials or a short personal message onto almost all of our fire-hose and leather pieces. It is a small detail, but it changes the object entirely - from something beautiful into something entirely unique, that is designed to belong to a specific person, on a specific occasion, for keeps.

Personalisation is available on almost our entire collection including bags, wallets, purses, notebooks, keyrings and selected accessories. The etching is done in our workshop near Faversham, in Kent. It will not fade. It becomes more beautiful over time as the material around it develops its patina.

How it works.

Choose the piece you want to personalise from this collection, or look for the personalisation option on individual product pages. At checkout, enter the text you would like etched. We will contact you if we need to confirm anything before completing the order. Please note, laser etchings are permanent and can't be undone. These pieces can only be returned if there is a quality issue.

What we can personalise.

  • Fire-hose bags, wallets and purses
  • Leather bags, wallets and purses
  • Notebooks in A5 and A4
  • Keyrings and selected accessories
  • Corporate and larger orders welcome - please contact us to discuss

A note on gift orders.

A personalised Elvis & Kresse piece makes an exceptional gift. It arrives in our standard packaging, ready to give. If you need a gift message included, add a note at checkout and we will take care of it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does personalisation take?

We aim to complete personalised orders on the day they are ordered, provided that your order arrives with us by 3pm, UK time. During busy periods such as November and December, this may extend slightly. We will let you know at the time of ordering if there is a longer lead time.

What text can I have etched?

Initials, a name, a date, a short phrase - anything up to around 20 characters depending on the piece. For longer messages or specific requests, contact us before ordering and we will confirm what is possible.

Can I personalise a piece that is not in this collection?

Many pieces not listed here can still be personalised. Contact us before ordering and we will let you know.

Is personalisation available on corporate orders?

Yes. We work with businesses on branded gifts and bulk personalised orders. Contact us to discuss your requirements, timing and pricing for larger quantities. You can also see our Corporate Gifts offering here.
