Deep sandcarving · Los Angeles
Deep-carved engraving for beverage brands and corporate gifts
We carve logos and lettering into glass, ceramic, stone, metal and wood by hand, then fill them with color. Our studio sits inside a licensed alcohol warehouse in Los Angeles County, so bottles stored here never have to leave the building.

Featured project
Herradura Legend × Los Angeles Dodgers
For Brown-Forman, we carve the Dodgers LA mark, “Edición Especial” and “Proud Partner” into every Herradura Legend bottle and fill them in gold. More than 11,000 bottles so far, up to 2,500 a week, and not one has left the warehouse.
Carved, not lasered
A laser marks the surface. Sandcarving cuts deep into it, and gets there much faster. It works best on glass, ceramic and stone, and handles complex shapes and large pieces that won’t fit in a laser machine.
| Feature | Deep sandcarving | Laser engraving |
|---|---|---|
| Depth | Deep relief with an edge you can feel | A shallow mark on the surface |
| Speed | Much faster, especially on deep designs | Every extra pass for depth adds time |
| Materials | At its best on glass, crystal, ceramic and stone | Only a shallow mark on glass, ceramic and stone |
| Shapes | Curved, tapered and irregular surfaces | Best on flat or cylindrical surfaces |
| Size | Large and oversized pieces | Only what fits in the machine |
| Color fill | Holds paint, including metallic gold | Usually too shallow to fill |
From drop-off to pickup
Swipe through all six steps
01 Drop-off
Bring your items to our studio in Rosemead. If your product is already stored in the warehouse, it never leaves the building.
02 Mockup
We send a free digital mockup. For larger runs, we make a physical sample before production.
03 Stencil and masking
We cut a stencil for your artwork and mask every piece, with custom jigs for unusual shapes.
04 Sandcarving
Each piece is carved by hand in the blast cabinet to the depth the design needs.
05 Color fill
On request, we fill the carved areas with color matched to your brand, from Pantone shades to metallic gold.
06 Inspection and pickup
We unmask, clean and check every piece and repack it. Pick it up at our studio, or we’ll arrange delivery through a shipping carrier.
