Engraved Custom Dice: Color-Filled Logos That Last
cut in, color-filled, built to roll.
Engraved custom dice have your logo, symbols or numbers cut into the face of the die and then filled with color, so the mark sits below the surface instead of on top of it. Get Custom Dice engraves acrylic, resin and metal dice from a minimum of 12, with a free mockup within 24 hours and about 2 weeks turnaround after approval.
Where engraved custom dice earn their keep.
Board game production runs
Engraved symbols and pips stay crisp after hundreds of rolls, which matters when dice ship inside a retail game box.
Roleplaying sets
Polyhedral sets with an engraved logo on the highest face feel like premium dice rather than promotional ones.
Executive desk gifts
Engraved metal dice carry a logo with a quiet, tactile finish that suits a client or board gift.
Casino-style game nights
Color-filled engraved cubes look at home on a felt table at a company casino night or charity event.
Store-brand dice
A game store can sell engraved dice with its own mark that survive daily use at the demo table.
Award and anniversary keepsakes
Engraving a name, date or team crest turns a single die into a keepsake people keep on a shelf.
Custom dice styles you can order.
Dice marks that do not rub off at the table.
Printed marks sit on the surface of a die, while engraved marks sit inside it. Get Custom Dice engraves and color-fills your artwork so logos, symbols and numbers keep their edges through years of rolling. You see a mockup of every face before anything is cut.

What to specify on an engraved dice order.

Each recess is filled with a contrasting color, such as white on black, gold on red or black on brushed metal.
Quantities
Orders start at a minimum of 12 dice, and you can split one run across several dice colors.
Timing
A free mockup arrives within 24 hours and production takes about 2 weeks after approval.
What are engraved custom dice and how are they made?
Engraved custom dice are dice where the design is cut into the face of the die and then filled with color. Get Custom Dice engraves your artwork into acrylic, resin or metal dice, fills each recess with a contrasting color and cleans the surface so only the filled design shows. The result is a mark that sits slightly below the face rather than on top of it.
The process runs in a clear order once you approve the mockup:
- Your artwork is converted into clean engraving paths for each face you want to change.
- The design is cut into the face of every die in the run.
- Each recess is filled with the color you chose.
- Excess fill is removed so the face is smooth and the edges of the design stay sharp.
- Dice are checked, packed and shipped.
Because the color lives inside a cut, engraved dice keep their marks through handling that would scuff a surface print, such as dice towers, metal trays and long game nights.
Is engraving the right decoration for my custom dice?
Engraving is the right choice for custom dice when durability and a premium feel matter more than full-color artwork. Engraved marks hold up to constant rolling, which makes them the safe pick for game components, store dice and gifts that will actually be used. Printing is better when your logo depends on gradients, photos or many colors.
| Your priority | Engraved dice | Printed dice |
|---|---|---|
| Marks that survive heavy rolling | Strong fit | Fair fit |
| Full-color or gradient logos | Limited to fill colors | Strong fit |
| Premium, tactile feel | Strong fit | Fair fit |
| Metal dice | Strong fit | Less common |
| Fine photographic detail | Not suited | Strong fit |
If your artwork is a printed design at heart, the custom printed dice page covers that route. If you want a natural wood look, see engraved wooden dice.
Which dice materials can be engraved?
Acrylic, resin and metal dice can all be engraved and color-filled at Get Custom Dice, and each material gives engraving a different character. Acrylic is the everyday choice for game runs and giveaways. Resin allows swirls, glitter and translucent colors behind the engraved mark. Metal gives a heavy, polished die where the engraved logo reads like jewelry.
- Acrylic dice: solid or translucent colors, clean recesses and strong contrast with white or black fill.
- Resin dice: decorative bodies where a metallic fill such as gold or silver lets the design stand out from the pattern.
- Metal dice: engraving cuts through the plating or finish, so the mark can be filled with enamel color or left as bright metal.
For a deeper look at how the bodies differ, read metal vs resin dice or browse metal dice sets. Engraving also works on precision and casino dice where recessed pips are expected.
How should I prepare artwork for engraved dice?
Artwork for engraved custom dice works best as a simple, single-color vector logo or symbol with bold lines. Engraving reproduces shapes and outlines, not shading, so thin hairlines, tiny text and soft gradients should be simplified before the design is cut. Send what you have and the Get Custom Dice team will flag anything that will not hold at die size.
- Use a vector file where possible, such as an AI, EPS, PDF or SVG.
- Choose one fill color per face, with strong contrast against the die body.
- Keep lettering short: a brand name, a year or a single word reads better than a sentence.
- Tell us which faces change and which keep standard numbers or pips.
Your free mockup within 24 hours shows each face with the fill color applied, so you can check scale and legibility before anything is engraved. Revisions are unlimited and you pay nothing until you approve the design.
Can engraved dice carry custom symbols on every face?
Engraved custom dice can carry custom symbols on one face, several faces or every face of the die. Game designers often replace all six faces of a cube with resource icons, while promotional buyers usually engrave a logo on the one face and keep standard pips elsewhere. Polyhedral sets typically carry the logo on the highest number of each die.
Plan a face map before you request a quote. List each face, what goes on it and which fill color it uses. Engraved symbols should be bold and distinct enough to tell apart across a table, especially if players read the result at a glance. Get Custom Dice builds the mockup from your face map so you can spot any confusing symbols before production.
If you are building dice for a game, the custom dice for board game designers page covers face maps, player colors and playtest runs in more detail.

Custom dice for buyers who want engraved dice, answered.
Do engraved dice marks wear off over time?
Engraved dice marks last far longer than surface prints because the design is cut into the die and the color sits inside the recess. Normal rolling, trays and dice bags do not reach the fill. Get Custom Dice recommends engraving for dice that will see years of use, such as game components, store demo dice and gifts people actually play with.
Can metal dice be engraved with a company logo?
Metal dice take engraved logos very well, and the cut can be filled with enamel color or left as bright exposed metal for a polished look. The production team engraves metal six-sided dice and metal polyhedral sets from a minimum of 12. A metal engraved die feels heavy and premium, which suits executive gifts and collector editions.
What fill colors are available for engraved dice?
Engraved dice can be filled with a wide range of colors, including white, black, gold, silver and brighter shades matched to your brand. The best fill color contrasts strongly with the die body, such as white on dark acrylic or gold on deep red resin. Your Get Custom Dice mockup shows the fill so you can judge contrast first.
Can I use a different fill color on each face of an engraved die?
Engraved dice can use different fill colors on different faces when your design calls for it, for example a gold logo face with white numbers elsewhere. Mention the color for each face in your face map when you request a quote. The production team shows every face in the mockup so you can confirm each color before production.
Is engraving suitable for very small text on dice?
Engraved dice reproduce bold shapes better than tiny lettering, so very small text often fills in or becomes hard to read. Short words, initials, a year or a simple wordmark work best on a die face. Get Custom Dice reviews your artwork and suggests a simplified version in the free mockup if any text is too fine to engrave cleanly.
Can translucent or glitter resin dice be engraved?
Translucent and glitter resin dice can be engraved, and a metallic or opaque fill helps the design stand out against the busy body. Gold, silver and white fills tend to read best on patterned resin. The production team can show your logo on a couple of body options in the mockup so you can compare legibility before choosing.
Can engraved dice keep standard pips on the other faces?
Engraved dice can keep standard pips or numbers on every face you do not customize, so the die still works in any normal game. Most promotional orders engrave the logo on one face and leave the rest standard. The production team engraves the pips in the same color-filled style so the whole die looks consistent.
Do engraved dice roll differently from printed dice?
Engraved dice are designed to roll like standard dice, because the recesses are shallow and the fill brings each face back close to flush. Precision and casino-style engraved dice use filled pips for exactly this reason. The production team treats every face of an engraved die the same way so no single side becomes noticeably lighter.
What file format works best for an engraved dice logo?
Engraved dice logos work best as vector files such as AI, EPS, PDF or SVG, because engraving follows clean outlines. A high-resolution PNG can work for simple marks, and the design team converts it where possible. Get Custom Dice confirms in the free mockup within 24 hours whether your file will engrave cleanly at die size.
Can I order engraved dice in more than one body color?
Engraved dice orders can be split across several body colors within one run, such as team colors or a different color per player. Each color can carry the same engraved design or its own fill. The production team lists the split in your quote, and the minimum of 12 applies to the order as a whole.
Are engraved dice a good choice for a game sold in retail stores?
Engraved dice suit retail board games because the symbols stay sharp after the heavy handling that a family game or a store demo copy receives. Players notice when printed symbols fade, and engraved faces avoid that problem. Get Custom Dice recommends a playtest batch first so you can check symbol legibility before the full production run.
Can a single engraved die be personalized with a name for each recipient?
Engraved dice can carry a different name or initials on one face for each recipient, which suits team gifts, awards and wedding party favors. Send the name list with your artwork and note which face changes. The production team shows sample names in the mockup so you can check spacing for the longest and shortest names.
How do engraved polyhedral sets show a logo on the highest face?
Engraved polyhedral sets usually replace the highest number on each die, such as the twenty on a twenty-sided die, with your logo. The other faces keep their numbers so the set stays playable. The production team engraves and color-fills the logo to match the numbers, giving the full set a consistent, premium look.
Can I see a sample of engraved dice before the full order?
Engraved dice orders begin with a free digital mockup within 24 hours showing every engraved face and fill color. Many buyers find the mockup is enough to approve, while game publishers often place a small first order of 12 for physical testing. Get Custom Dice charges nothing until you approve the design for production.
What details should I include when requesting a quote for engraved dice?
Engraved dice quotes move fastest when you include the quantity, dice shape, material, body colors, fill colors, which faces change and your artwork file. Add your target delivery date and shipping ZIP code too. Get Custom Dice uses those details to prepare an accurate quote and a mockup within 24 hours of receiving them.
Can engraved dice be reordered later with the same design?
Engraved dice can be reordered with the same design, fill colors and face map, which keeps a game edition or store line consistent across runs. Keep your approved mockup and mention it on the new request. The production team matches the earlier specifications, and a reorder still follows the minimum of 12 and about 2 weeks turnaround.
