Custom Engraved Signs – Crafted with Care, Built to Last

Add charm and character to your home with a personalised sign made especially for you.

At Cosy Cotswold Co, we specialise in custom engraved signs that blend timeless design with genuine craftsmanship. Handmade by our family-run team in the heart of the Cotswolds, each sign reflects the beauty of natural materials, the skill of traditional techniques, and your own personal touch.

Whether it’s a classic oak house sign, a striking engraved stone plaque, or a playful wooden number sign, we help you create something unique that welcomes visitors with style and lasting quality.

Why Choose a Custom Engraved Sign?

Every home has a story, and a handcrafted sign is the perfect way to share it. Our custom engraved signs are made to order, tailored to your taste, and designed to elevate the entrance of your home, garden, or business.

Unlike mass-produced alternatives, we work closely with you to ensure your sign is truly personal. From layout to lettering, our design process focuses on the small details that make all the difference.

Perfect for:

  • House names and numbers

  • Gates and driveways

  • Holiday cottages and farm stays

  • Small business signage

  • New home gifts and family keepsakes

Our Range of Handcrafted Materials

  • Wooden sign on stone wall reads 'FIELD FARM HOUSE', with blurred green trees and sky in the background.

    Oak House Signs

    Our engraved oak house signs are made from solid, air-dried timber sourced from sustainable forests. Oak is loved for its grain, strength, and natural beauty. Over time, it develops a soft silver patina that gives each sign a timeless charm. We carefully engrave, oil, and finish every piece to ensure durability in all weather conditions.

    Stone House Signs

    Choose from traditional Cotswold stone or other premium materials to create a truly elegant sign that blends seamlessly with heritage homes or garden walls. Precision-engraved lettering and a range of layout options ensure maximum legibility and long life, even in harsh outdoor environments.

    Wooden Number and Name Plaques

    We also offer engraved signs in walnut, oak, or other hardwoods, ideal for a more rustic or characterful look. Whether you prefer sleek minimalism or a decorative style, we’ll help you choose the right font, shape, and finish.

Tailored to You – The Art of Personalisation

From the moment you enquire, we work with you to bring your ideas to life. Whether it’s a simple house number or a more elaborate name plaque, our design process ensures the final product is exactly as you imagined.

We offer:

  • A wide choice of fonts – from elegant scripts to clean modern typefaces

  • Optional borders, motifs, and decorative carvings (pets, crests, flowers, etc.)

  • Custom shapes and sizes to match your home’s architecture

  • Clear digital proofs for approval before we engrave

  • Fixing options: pre-drilled, hidden, or stand-mounted

We believe a house sign should be more than just functional – it should reflect your style, your family, and your story.

Built to Endure the Elements

Every sign is finished by hand to ensure maximum weather resistance:

  • Oak signs are treated with natural tung oil for water repellency.

  • Stone plaques are sealed to prevent staining and frost damage.

  • Hardware is rust-resistant and suitable for exposed locations

We design for all seasons, so your sign remains as striking in winter rain as it is on a sunny summer day.
