Thanks

Never heard of them, but this is directly off their website:
Most Nambé alloy and crystal items can be personalized.
Our crystal items are personalized through a process called laser etching, which produces a result very similar to sandblasting. We create a high-resolution image of your message and turn it over to our personalization experts, who use a computerized laser to create your message onto the surface of your Nambé purchase.
For our Nambé Alloy products, the laser-etch process is followed by sandblasting for impressively sharp edges.
So my guess would be a fiber would work and you'll probably get mixed results with cermark.

Keith,
Thanks for your response. We don't have a fiber so I think I will pass.

Nambe is just an aluminum alloy trying to be fancy... I have marked them with my fiber but doubt you'll have much luck with Cermark, too much metal that acts as a very good heat sink. If you have at least 80 watts you might be able to do it but I'd do some testing first.

This was my suspicion, but i didn't want to guess just based on the look and descriptions.
