Leather Engraving & Embossing in Kenya
Personalise Qali Bags or suitable externally supplied bags and leather items with custom engraving or embossing. Add names, initials, short messages, dates, graphic designs or selected corporate branding for a distinctive, personalised finish.
Depending on the product design, personalisation may be placed directly on the bag body, on a leather shoulder strap or on a leather logo patch.
Where Can Your Personalisation Be Placed?

Engraving or Embossing: What’s the Difference?
Engraving and embossing create different finishes and suit different personalisation needs. Engraving works well for names, initials, messages, graphic designs and selected logos, while leather embossing is primarily used for corporate logo branding on suitable Qali Bags or bespoke products.
Engraving
Engraving creates a clear, visible mark on the leather surface and works well for names, initials, short messages, dates, graphic designs and selected logos. The finish is typically more defined and visually prominent than embossing.
Corporate Leather Embossing
Leather embossing is particularly suited to corporate branding on selected Qali Bags products. Company logos can be pressed into suitable leather panels, logo patches or detachable leather tags to create a clean, professional and durable finish. This option works well for corporate gifts, staff bags and branded orders, subject to the suitability of the logo and product design.
