In this blog, we will be discussing the nature of engraved timber, how it is created, and its uses, concerning some of the top engraved timber picks from our range.
Engraved timber typically refers to wood that has been marked or decorated by engraving, which involves cutting or carving a design into the surface of the wood. Nowadays, designs, patterns, and writing are carefully etched onto wooden surfaces to transform a simple piece of timber into a unique piece of art.
In recent years, engraved wooden products have risen in popularity, especially with major suppliers mass-producing them to meet the demands. At Fuscina, we believe because of the craftsmanship and attention to detail that goes into it, opting for bespoke, handmade engraved timber is a much better investment.
Whilst engraved timber is a common item, the process in which it is crafted varies. Each company will have its own methods for creating these products, and in many cases, companies will prioritise laser engraving, and acid etching due to them being more cost-effective. However, with these more industrial-style processes’ it’s easy for mistakes to be made. Common issues include the wood being damaged and designs being less unique. Comparatively, the superior method for engraving wood is completing it by hand, as we do at Fuscina.
Hand engraving is a craft technique that involves engraving a motif on a plain piece of timber, using a knife or burin. Whilst the principle of the process is simple, the engraver will draw the pattern to follow on the piece of wood. It is carving lines into the timber to create the desired pattern. This engraving will then be covered in ink, filling in the divots created by the knife.
At Fuscina, we’re committed to crafting the highest quality, bespoke engraved timber pieces for your home. Here are some of our current bestsellers:
