Engraved gavels are a type of ceremonial mallet used in various official settings, such as courtrooms, boardrooms, and government offices. The gavel is typically made of wood or metal and is used by a presiding officer to maintain order and signify the beginning or end of a session or meeting.

Engraving on gavels is a common practice to personalize them for the person who will be using it. Engraved gavels often feature the name, title, and dates of service of the person who will be using it, along with any other relevant information. The engraving can be done using various techniques such as laser engraving, sandblasting, or traditional hand engraving.

Engraved gavels can be used as a commemorative gift for someone who has served in a leadership role or to mark a special occasion such as a retirement, promotion, or anniversary. They can also be used as a symbol of authority or respect in various professions, including law, politics, and academia.
