You’ve seen the pictures and if you’re lucky enough, you’ve seen them in person, too – beautiful patterns and shapes engraved on flutes. A quick Google search shows you that a lot engraving is done by a machine with a laser (potentially damaging to your flute), can only be done on small pieces (bummer because your headjoint won’t fit), and can only be from a list of pre-set designs (not your style).

I don’t use a laser or big machinery, all of my engraving is done completely by hand so no matter how intricate the design and no matter where you want it located on your flute, I can engrave it for you. Be it a Celtic pattern on a lip plate, a western scroll style engraving on the keys or a constellation on your crown, I work with you to customize your engraving so that it’s everything you’ve imagined. Always executed with extreme care and precision, my hand engraved accents will take your flute to the next level of beauty.

Offering a full range of custom engraving options for flutes and headjoints, I love to help my clients take their flutes from simple to extraordinary. I have a selection of engraving designs to choose from as well as the ability to custom design engravings for clients who require a truly unique engraving. A native of Maine, I draw a lot of my design ideas from the nature around me, whether in the form of a little bird on a flute key, a floral pattern on a crown, or a bumble bee engraving on a lip plate. Trained by several of the world’s master engravers, including Sam Alfano and Brian Powley, I seek to carry on the tradition of hand engraving to the highest possible standard.
