How to Choose a Personalised 3D Crystal Gift (Photo, Galaxy or Special Memory)

A 3D laser-engraved crystal is one of the most special gifts we make. A tiny glowing world sits inside solid glass, lit from below. I first made one with a galaxy, and you can read the story in My Galaxy in a Crystal.

But what should go inside yours? Here’s how we help people decide.

1. A photo of someone you love
Portraits work beautifully, especially of a child, a couple or a grandparent. Choose a clear photo with good light.

2. A pet
This is one of our favourite requests. A dog or cat engraved in crystal makes a lovely keepsake, or a gentle memorial.

3. A galaxy, planet or night sky
Perfect for space fans. You can even choose the sky from a special date, such as a birthday or wedding day 

4. A place or a building
A first home, a hometown landmark or a wedding venue.

Tips for the best result

  • Send the highest-quality photo you have.
  • Pick a simple subject and send to our WhatsApp
  • Order early for Christmas. Personalised gifts take time to make.

Why it’s different

Every crystal is made to order in our Kildare workshop, so nobody else will have the same one.
