The engraving process uses a laser to etch images and text on your crystal. When the laser is focused on to the glass, the focal point of energy is so high that the structure is changed at a small point. The laser beam is controlled by a computer, creating an image made of a thousand small points. This laser process is known as Vitrography.

At 3D Laser Gifts, we offer five (5) different crystal shapes: Diamond, Flat, Heart, Prestige, Tower, and Train.

Most of the designs come in the standard Small, Medium, and Large sizes. Tower and Train shapes offer additional sizes of XL, XXL, XXXL, and MAX. To see what sizes are available in your preferred shape, click on the crystal size drop down menu on Step 2 of the ordering process.

Yes, our highly skilled and trained designers are working with the latest software and laser technology for image conversion to turn 2D images into 3D images.

We make it easy for you - just give us your photo and we do the rest.

Yes, we can. It is also possible for a 3D designer to compile 3D data on his computer and later on engrave into a crystal.

Yes, we can take simple logos or graphics and laser them on to the glass in 3D. If the logo you send is not a 2D illustration or is made of complex color gradients, it may not work. If you have questions about your logo, email us at customerservice@3dlasergifts.com.

Our system can process almost any image file format. The most common file formats include JPG, JPEG, GIF, TIFF, BMP, and PNG. If your file format is not listed here, contact us at customerservice@3dlasergifts.com and we will let you know if your image format is compatible.

While customizing your crystal during Step 2, click on the 'Select File' button under Upload Picture. A window will open, allowing you to browse through images stored on your computer. It is the same process as uploading a picture to your email. You can upload up to three (3) pictures.

We recommend uploading files between 100kb and 5MG for the best picture quality. Our website has a size limit of 5MG so if you would like to upload a photo larger than 5MG, please send it as an email attachment to customerservice@3dlasergifts.com.

If you are having difficulty uploading, you can send an email with your photo as an attachment to customerservice@3dlasergifts.com.

If you order a flat crystal, the background will be included in the crystal engraving. If you choose a different shape, our designers automatically remove the background.

The recommended number of figures (people, animals, and inanimate objects) varies depending on the shape and size of your crystal. With small and medium crystals, we usually cannot add more figures because of space limitations; it would negatively affect the detail and clarity of the engraved image. With larger crystals, you do have the option of adding more figures for an additional fee.

For the best results, we suggest following the recommended number of figures.

Although we accept most photos, the higher quality the better. It is best to avoid blurry or dark photos. In the rare circumstance we cannot use your photo for 3D engraving, we will contact you for a different photo.

We do not offer proofs for individual orders. Since our designers do their best to match the 3D engraving to the submitted image, your photo serves as the proof.

For quantity order of 10 or more, we will send you a proof upon request.

Yes, you have the option of engraving text along with your image on a crystal.

We offer five different font options for text: Arial, Blackadder, Georgia, Monotype Corsiva, and Script.

We have a 40 character limit, including spacing. We recommend this character limit because it works best with all crystal sizes and designs and doesn't detract from your image.

Although the recommended limit is 40 characters including spaces, you can add more characters. If over the limit, place your text in the 'Special Instructions' section on the order page. There is no additional fee for more than 40 characters.

Note: On smaller crystals, longer text might interfere with the image since there is less surface space for the 3D engraving. 

Yes, we can include symbols in the text. If you would like to include a heart or any other symbols, please mention under 'Special Instructions'.

To start, click the 'Order Now' button on the 3D Laser Gifts homepage.

Step 1 will ask you to choose the shape of your crystal.

Step 2 allows you to add personal details for customizing your crystal. At this step, you upload the picture you would like engraved into your crystal. You also have the option to add two lines of text, for example 'I Love You, Mom,' and specify a font style for the text. After selecting your engraving style, you may add a light base, which will light up the image inside the crystal.

Next, choose the quantity you want to order and include any special instructions for your order.

Finally, click 'Continue' to get to the Check Out page where you can complete your order.

The order process, which is the number of days we need to produce your crystal, takes between two to three (2-3) business days. 

Note: During the busy holiday season, the processing time is subject to change.

If you have a specific layout in mind, we encourage you to share your idea with us. You can either use the 'Special Instructions' section to describe in detail where you want the image and text placed on the crystal or you can draw a mockup to upload in the photo section of the order form. 

You can change your order as long as it has not been processed. Processed orders have already been sent to our designers and cannot be changed.

If you decide to change your order, contact Customer Service immediately at 1-866-283-9147. One of our Customer Service reps will let you know the status of your order and if you can change it.

Since the crystals are personalized, we can only cancel an order before it is processed. If you would like to cancel your order, please contact us via phone or email as early as possible and we will let you know if the order can be cancelled.

No, we do not. Since every order is customized, the 2-3 processing time is standard.
