Please TIME....SLO-DWN-4US
Another second to place my hand on your cheek to tell you we're fine and everything will be alright.
Another minute to look into your eyes
and realize that life would be less colorful and oh so boring without you in it.
Another hour to hold your hands just to feel your heart beat pulsing through them.
Another week to hug and kiss you. Reminding you.....you're my one and only choice.
Another month to love and support
you through this exhilarating thing called life. Win, lose or draw....everything seems to workout ....in the end.
Another year to be by your side or sharing the rarified air that you breathe...is.....and will always be your greatest gift to me.
Please TIME...even though time slows for no one. SLO DWN 4US so that we can be present to embrace and enjoy those precious moments to come that only WE are willing and happy to create for one another. Until time ends with love and gratitude. Your loyal and devoted husband....Pooface!!! Happy valentines y'all! She lost her engagement ring a while back and I wanted to replace it with another to which she rejected. But She loved it!!!! And said this is better than any engagement ring. This watch is useful. I LOVE HER!!! Her initials SLO and mine Dwn.....BEST VALENTINES EVER! Isabelle who greeted me and took down my request. Suggested that I opt in for the rush. Which meant I would get it in an hour vs 48 hours in time for Valentines was worth the memory and permanent smile on my wife's face after seeing the watch. Isabelle was very personable and bubbly. And Wade did a fantastic job on the engraving! It exceeded my expectations! Thanks for the great experience and I'll be back to get my daughter's watch done!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

I was looking for a very last minute rush engraving for a photo frame. I am so glad to find Heirloom. I dropped off the frame I needed engraving off in the morning around 9am and was able to pick up at 2pm. Their work is great and very professional.

I first used Heirloom Engravers during the pandemic to get some mugs engraved as a gift for the team I support. Wade (the owner and operator) is so easy to work with and so kind. He offers helpful suggestions and is very responsive. I liked working with him so much that I came back again a few years later to get some special flasks engraved for my bridesmaids. They did a beautiful job and I will 100% be using them again.

I needed 10 watches engraved as gifts for my groomsmen for my wedding. Working with Wade was a breeze! He was very responsive and helpful when communicating my options for engraving.
They offered me a discount price since I was getting a bulk amount of engravings done. He easily provided the best value of all of the competitors that I shopped around at.
The quality of the engraving itself was fantastic, and Wade had them done super fast which was perfect for my timeline.
If I ever have engraving needs again, I'll definitely come back to Heirloom Engravers to do business again!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Wow!!!!! Worst customer experience of my life!! When my order was delayed, I received a voicemail about an emergency funeral. Actually, my property had been damaged. I found that out by calling them!! Then I had to call again to find out if the work had been completed!! Wade, the owner, acted as if I was a bother rather than a paying customer!!! Rude and dismissive best describe his attitude!! Shreve and Co. should be ashamed to send customers to this rotten businessman!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Wow Daniel. We made a mistake on your item, it does happen. We called and left a message immediately and we ordered a new one. The day it came in I re did your order.
You did tell me that you didn't get any message from us, but I heard my assistant leaving the message. I know you didn't believe me, but all I can do is tell you what happened.
Sorry you had a bad experience. I have no way of deleting these things, and as you can see, we have a lot of GREAT reviews. We wish you all the best.

I used Heirloom Engravers for a custom message inside my husband's wedding ring that I purchased at Costco. Most jewelers will not provide this service unless you purchased the jewelry from them. Heirloom Engravers are one of the few businesses that will! My husband loved the message inside the ring when he finally saw it at the ceremony and so did everyone who has seen it so far. Wade and his team did an amazing job, the ring was ready quickly and the quality of work was amazing. I would highly recommend this service to anyone!

I suppose that there must be an engraver more competent and committed to their work, but Wade perhaps is singular in these two aspects.
An expert craftsman, and good human.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Needed something nice engraved and was worried about how the jewelry would be handled. Thankfully, no need to worry with Heirloom. They handled the piece with care, the engraving looks great, and they were even able to accommodate a same day turnaround request.

Specialty engraving is becoming a lost art; but, San Francisco is still fortunate to have a master engraver, Wade of Heirloom Engraving! He is a true artist but also the consummate gentleman.
I recently needed a sterling silver Tiffany baby rattle engraved and Wade did an amazing job!
He has a master's eye and takes pride in his work.
With such a specialty skill set, you would assume his fees would be exorbitant, but it's just the opposite. For my recent project, I increased the scope of work after the original consultation, but he stuck to the original price. I offered to pay more, but he politely declined saying it was a straight-forward project.
Wade is a delight to work with and I am looking forward to collaborating with him on my next project.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0Business owner information

Thanks Kevin, I really appreciate the great review! One day, when you and I are long retired this rattle will be an heirloom being handed down to the next generation. I love being a small part of that!
