“We worked with Sanda Letter for the personalized engraving of champagne flutes for Valentine’s Day for the company Mauler, and we are absolutely delighted with the result. Her work is precise, elegant and of outstanding quality. Sanda was fast, available and highly professional throughout the project.”

We had the pleasure of working with Sanda for a live bottle engraving event, and the experience was exceptional. Her talent and attention to detail turned each bottle into a unique keepsake, delighting our guests. Professional, warm and incredibly skilled, Sanda brought a truly memorable touch to our event. We highly recommend her services!

We favour hand-painted, hand-engraved and hand-lettered creations, offering an approach that avoids adhesive stickers.
Every surface is a potential canvas. We are not limited to paper—quite the opposite.
Based in Bern and available throughout Switzerland, Sanda Letter works with brands, event agencies, wedding professionals and private clients across the country. From Zurich and Basel to Geneva, Lausanne, Lucerne and beyond, live engraving, calligraphy, hot foil and hand-painted personalization can be brought directly to your event.
Available in German-, French- and Italian- speaking and Switzerland.
Personalization is the process of adding a personal touch to an object, such as a name, initials, message or design, using techniques like engraving, calligraphy, hot foil stamping or hand painting.
Our personalization are crafted by hand and we avoid stickers as much as possible.
I am based in Bern City, Switzerland, and yes, I do travel across Switzerland and abroad for my live personalization clients.
Yes! Bulk orders can be prepared in the studio ahead of your event, so all your calligraphy or personalized items are ready for the big day. This is ideal for place cards, gifts, event favors and other bespoke details that need to be ready in advance.
Almost any object can be a canvas. From notebooks, pocket mirrors, fans, to leather goods like shoes and hats, satin scarfes, flutes and wine bottles. As long as the surface is not very textured, we can find an adapted personalization technique.
We mostly work on metal and glass. Some plastic, ceramic and wood items can be engraved. For other superficies, burning, hot foiling or lettering/painting are the techniques that suits the most.
Most of surfaces can be personalized, with an adapted technique, wether with hot foiling, engraving, painting or burnt.
The space needed depends on the size and amount of items to personalized. The minimum size table is about 60x60cm
Onsite I don’t need much material:
The number of guests we can serve depends on the technique and level of personalization. As a general guideline, 4 hours of on-site service can accommodate up to around 80 guests, for a word or initials. Longer texts and more detailed illustrations take more time per item, reducing the overall number of guests we can serve.
Engraving is one of my fastest techniques, after calligraphy. Working alone, I can engrave an average of 20 items per hour, with one word per item. For live hot foil stamping, the average is 15–20 items per hour.
Capacity can be increased by limiting personalization options, having an assistant manage the queue and requests, or adjusting the setup. We can discuss and agree on these parameters before your event.
For high-volume events, I can also coordinate additional artists to help meet your objectives.
