CALLIGRAPHY SERVICES

In-studio calligraphy personalization involves creating customized calligraphy pieces in a studio setting, often based on clients' requests. It differs from live event calligraphy as it's not created on-site at an event but rather in a controlled studio environment.

Calligraphy adds a personal and thoughtful aspect to corporate gifts, demonstrating a company's commitment to individualized appreciation and attention to detail.

Companies often commission calligraphers to hand letter their products (i.e., create custom labels, tags, or notes for gifts), making them more memorable for their customers.

Here are a few specific ideas:

• Bottles of Wine or Spirits

• Leather-Bound Notebooks

• Holiday cards

• Branded Promotional Items

• Fragrances

• Cosmetics

• Candles

• Drinkware (Stemware, Metal Tumblers)

• Knives

• Jewelry

• Handbags

• Shoes, and more!

Live event calligraphy occurs “on-site”, during events such as weddings, corporate gatherings, or parties. It differs from traditional calligraphy in that it is created in real-time, often personalized for customers and attendees, and used to enhance the event's visual appeal.

Personalized calligraphy pieces are often created by hand during the event, incorporating guest names or messages. Calligraphers may work from a list provided by the client or write names as guests arrive.

There truly is no limit! Each event can be tailored to the event's specific objectives.

Live event calligraphy can be incorporated at weddings, corporate functions, product launches, milestone celebrations, and high-end events where personalized, decorative elements are desired.

Customers, visitors, and attendees can observe products being personalized live and in-person.
