Smoothgift commemorates this occasion with this special engraving. The texts and the image are engraved deep and then the texts are coloured. Optionally, the texts can be gilded with real 24k gold leaf or real silver leaf (in "Available Options" below)

An all round perfect gift. A work of art on a bottle. Even it's financial value will appreciate with years.

Cuba and the United States had endured a half-century of enmity. The tension worsened by the two nations being only 90 miles apart. Key events of those years include some of the most traumatic in modern U.S. history, such as the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Bay of Pigs and the Mariel boatlift of 1980.

This was the handshake that shook the Western Hemisphere.

This was historic. The two nations have barely been on speaking terms -- officially -- for more than 50 years.

The meeting was so important that Bernadette Meehan, National Security Council spokesperson, issued a statement: 'At the Summit of the Americas this evening, President Obama and President Castro greeted each other and shook hands.'

A high quality yet affordable brand, Jacob's Creek is enjoyed in over 65 countries, making it Australia's most popular wine. The range has been awarded over 5000 show awards worldwide.

The philosophy of Jacob's Creek is to create a wine that goes with any occasion that can be enjoyed now or, depending on the wine style, can also be cellared for future enjoyment.

The fruit for Jacob's Creek is sourced from different regions within South Eastern Australia, enabling the winemakers to overcome seasonal variation in any particular region, improve the quality of the wine and select fruit that will best suit the wine style. The focus is to produce and preserve the maximum amount of varietal flavours with an appropriate balance of natural sugars and acidity that best suit the styles of Jacob's Creek resulting in elegant, soft and fruity wines that are renowned for quality and value. Over 5000 show awards from around the globe are testament to this.

In 1994, Jacob's Creek won the coveted Maurice O'Shea Trophy for outstanding contribution to the Australian wine industry - the first time a brand has won this prestigious award, rather than an individual. The introduction of the Reserve range in 2000 heralded a new era for Jacob's Creek by introducing wines of higher quality at a more premium price.

Engraving and Gilding
If your order involves engraving and or gilding, you would be sent an image of the texts and artwork to be engraved by email, for your approval before engraving. We will not engrave your work until you have given us your consent to do so.

Smoothgift offers both Sandblasting engraving and Hand engraving methods. Sandblasting engraving is a true form of art. It is the most versatile form of engraving and as such, it requires specific skill set. It is distinct from other form of engraving like computer controlled form of engraving (e.g. cnc engraving, laser engraving, etc). With sandblasting engraving, no two engraved pieces are ever exactly the same.

Hand engraving is the most authentic form of engraving. It is almost as versatile form of engraving as sandblasting engraving. It shows character and just like sandblasting engraving, no two engraved pieces are ever the same.

Both engraving methods are perfect for texturing on all hard surfaces. While sandblasting cannot achieve deep engraving only on steel and metal surfaces, deep engraving and carving can be achieved with hand engraving or with a combination of sandblasting and hand engraving on steel, plexiglass, glass, acrylic, metals, woods, stones and on almost all other hard surface objects. The result is usually stunning and impressive. See more about our different engraving methods in 'quot;help'quot; or 'quot;Engraving'quot;.

Gilding is an elaborate process that requires special skill set and plenty of time for drying but the beauty of the end product makes it worthy of the time and efforts put into making it.

Although our gilding services includes oil gilding, water gilding and powder buff gilding, only oil gilding is offered for most of the products on our website. However, our customers are welcome to request for either the traditional water gilding or powder buff gilding.

While water gilding and powder buff gilding cannot be burnished or polished, oil gilding can be.

Smoothgift offers the following leafs for gilding:
Real 24 karats gold leaf
Real silver leaf and
Imitation gold leaf

It is worth noting that while the imitation gold leaf gilding requires protection cover in form of clear acrylic sealer against potential UV damages, Real 24 karats gold leaf gilding and Real silver leaf gilding do not require any protection against the UV damages because they are genuine leafs. They will never tarnish or oxide. They will always retain their shines.
