WHAT SET US APART

PRODUCTION THE ENGRAVING PROCESS


At Beyond Memories, each crystal goes through a precise and carefully managed engraving process. We combine advanced 3D software, high-powered laser technology, and expert design adjustments to ensure your photo becomes a stunning, lifelike keepsake.



Step 1

Photo Preparation & Software Enhancement

Every engraving begins with your photo.

• Our designers review and enhance the image, adjusting brightness, contrast, and removing distractions.

• Specialized 3D software converts the flat photo into a layered model, giving depth and realism.

• Human oversight ensures faces, pets, and details look their very best before engraving.

STEP 2

3D Conversion

Using advanced imaging software, your 2D photo is transformed into a 3D file.

• This process calculates depth, contours, and subtle shadows.

• For portraits, we emphasize facial structure so the subject appears more natural in crystal.

• Multiple subjects are positioned carefully to maintain balance inside the engraving.

Step 3

Laser Engraving Inside the Crystal

The heart of the process is our ultra-precise 4K laser engraving system.

• The laser focuses light at thousands of precise points inside the crystal.

• Each micro-point creates a tiny etched dot, and together they form a full 3D image.

• Unlike surface etching, this method engraves within the crystal, leaving the exterior flawless and smooth.

Step 4

Quality Control & Speed

Every crystal is checked by hand before shipping.

• We inspect clarity, engraving accuracy, and alignment.

• Our production is streamlined: most orders are engraved and ready to ship within 24–48 hours.

• This means you get a premium, custom product without long delays.

Step 5

Finishing & Packaging

After engraving, your crystal is cleaned, polished, and packaged.

• Each piece is placed in a protective premium gift box.

• Add-on light bases are tested with your crystal to ensure maximum effect.

• Secure packaging prevents damage in transit.
