How to make it
- 1Select marble coaster blanks with a flat, polished face.
- 2Marble engraves to a light, etched frost — design for contrast, not depth.
- 3Test on one coaster; stone varies in hardness and color.
- 4Engrave names, a date, or a short quote centered on the face.
- 5Add cork feet if the blanks don’t include them, and box as a set.
Pro tips
- •Marble wants a fast, moderate-power engrave for a clean white etch — too slow scorches gray.
- •Dark marble gives the best contrast; heavily veined stone can obscure fine text.
- •Sell as sets of 2 or 4 with gift packaging for the Valentine’s premium.

How do you engrave marble coasters?+
Marble etches to a light frosted-white mark with a fast, moderate-power pass — no coating needed. Design for contrast rather than depth and always test, since stone hardness and veining vary.
