Prices are exact shelf prices in pounds, read from John Lewis and The Works on 5 October 2026: we opened each product page and checked the price, the currency and that the item was in stock. Prices move with sales and Black Friday, so check at the shop. The links open a search at John Lewis, Argos or The Works, with no affiliate tracking: if a link ever earns us a commission, it will not change what we recommend.
How to choose
- Order early: personalised items are made to order, and delivery takes longer than for a standard item.
- Check the spelling of the name or date before you confirm: a mistake is hard to fix.
- Personalised items are usually not returnable, so check the shop's policy.
Frequently asked questions
