Slate sign or coaster: a simple drawing to help you picture short or long wording — not a seller’s product, font or layout. Real items vary, so always check the seller’s own preview or proof. What you type isn’t stored.

About this idea

Slate engraves to a pale grey that stands out well against the dark stone. Coasters come in squares or rough-edged rounds, often in sets of four, and make a practical housewarming present.

Some sellers will engrave a different initial, pub-style name or drink on each coaster.

Who it suits

New homeowners, couples and drinks lovers.

Ordering in time

Slate engraving is usually done to order; check the dispatch time and how the set is packed.

Before you order

  • Natural slate varies in colour and edge — that’s normal.
  • Check that the back has protective pads so it won’t scratch furniture.
  • Short text reads best on a small coaster.
