John W. Thompson & Son are Master Hand Engravers, with John accumulating over 58 years experience. But the art of engraving has forever been in their family - their ancestor was the famed 18th century hand engraver William Hogarth. John W. Thompson completed a five-year apprenticeship with Messrs William Day (Engravers) Ltd at the Angel, Islington, London, in the 1960s.
At John W. Thompson & Son we still use the same methods to engrave as were used in the Middle Ages. Every design is delicately hand engraved using small engraving chisels. Each scroll and letter is unique in its depth and flourish. Your ring is of course custom, so we will work through designs with you and develop the personalised look that you wish to achieve.

Came here looking for someone to do engraving on a pen. Although they no longer do it, the guy inside was very kind to recommend me to places nearby that offer the service and explained to me in details what they do and how to get there. That was how I got to know another good place that offers engraving.

The Thompson's are 'best in class', amazing artisans. I ordered by Mother a signet ring with seal, the Thompsons worked with my timing to create the most amazing ring - honestly a work of art. I was so proud to present to my Mother and she will cherish it forever. On top of all of this the Thompson's are so lovely to deal with - professional and friendly. I would highly recommend to anyone who appreciates quality and incredible service.
