The Art of Custom Bottle Etching
We specialize in transforming ordinary bottles into extraordinary works of art through our expert wine etching process. This intricate and refined technique elevates a simple bottle into a personalized masterpiece that reflects the spirit of your event, organization, or serves as an exceptional gift. More than just a label, our etched bottles are cherished for their beauty, craftsmanship, and lasting appeal.
The journey begins with your vision
Customers come to us with ideas, whether a corporate logo, event theme, or personal message. Our design team then crafts a custom design that complements both the bottle and your vision. Using a combination of advanced technology and artisan skill, we bring your design to life.
Unlike traditional labels, our etching is a tactile, dimensional process that carves intricate designs directly onto the bottle, ensuring a durable, lasting finish that won’t fade or peel.
Precision, Passion, and Patience
Our etching process is a true blend of craftsmanship and advanced technology. Here’s a step-by-step look at how we create our stunning etched bottles:
-
Mask Creation: Each bottle starts with a unique mask, designed to protect areas of the bottle that shouldn’t be etched, allowing for precise design placement.
-
Hand Washing & Mask Application: We carefully wash every bottle by hand to ensure it's pristine before applying the mask, which adheres perfectly to the glass.
-
Opulent Sandblasting: Using specialized sandblasting equipment and a fine abrasive, we etch your design directly onto the bottle, meticulously crafting each detail.
-
Exquisite Painting: Once etched, our artisans hand-paint the design with vibrant, long-lasting colors. Gold and silver are often used for their elegance, but we offer a full spectrum of colors to match your personal or corporate palette.
-
Final Touch & Quality Assurance: After painting, the mask is removed, and each bottle undergoes a thorough cleaning and quality check to ensure perfection before it’s shipped to you.
Advanced Techniques for Superior Results
Our process relies on precision and careful attention to detail. We use state-of-the-art etching machines and control factors like temperature, etching pressure, and paint drying to ensure the highest quality finish. Our artisans are meticulously trained over 18 months to master the techniques required for flawless results. Every bottle is a collaborative effort, involving seven dedicated team members to ensure excellence at every step.
A Continuing Legacy of Craftsmanship
Our journey began with simple tools and humble beginnings, evolving alongside advancements in technology. From early fax machines to state-of-the-art etching equipment, we’ve continuously refined our craft. Today, we take immense pride in the timeless beauty of our work, which often becomes so cherished that bottles are left unopened, preserved as art pieces for years to come.
The result of this commitment is a collection of bottles that become treasured keepsakes, admired for both their aesthetic appeal and the memories they represent. Just as a skilled athlete hones their craft over years of practice, our artisans have honed their skills through years of dedication, transforming potential mistakes into beautiful flourishes.

Custom Wines began as a story of friendship and shared creativity. It was 1987 when Mike and Amy, then in the seventh grade, first crossed paths. In a classroom assignment, they were asked to create business cards reflecting their future careers. To their surprise, both envisioned careers centered around art and creativity. This sparked a lifelong bond, as they realized their passions aligned. Little did they know, this moment would be the foundation of Custom Wines.
