What we YW like about this artist

We love Didi Letters’ style of calligraphy and are amazed how she uses calligraphy on mediums beyond paper. Her luxurious and custom hand-engraving work on glassware and jewelry, as well as her floral adornments are beautiful to behold. We can imagine how excited we’d be to receive a stunning hand-engraved perfume bottle or necklace, or see a gorgeous watercolour flower on a note or card, the message written in elegant lettering.

Didi’s work really speaks to our sense of nostalgia and romance, and our deep appreciation for artistry and high-quality craftsmanship. The love and effort that go into these personalized hand-crafted creations make them an especially treasured gift or event memento that we would be happy and proud to give or receive.
