AtaNova is a small Belgian personalisation atelier in Antwerp, creating thoughtful personalised gifts, keepsakes and made-to-order pieces for life’s most meaningful moments.

Our work is not limited to one product type, one material or one occasion. From personal gifts and family keepsakes to wedding details, event decorations, home accessories and bespoke projects, every creation begins with the person, story or moment behind it.

We believe personalisation should add genuine meaning. A name, date, photograph, message or carefully chosen detail can transform an everyday object into something deeply personal and memorable.

Crafted for the Moments That Matter Most

A new baby’s name. A wedding date. A favourite family photograph. The exact night sky from a life-changing moment. A personal message for someone special. A welcome sign for an unforgettable celebration.

These details may be small, but the memories behind them are not.

That is why AtaNova creates personalised pieces for many different moments and purposes, including:

• Births, baptisms and childhood milestones
• Birthdays, anniversaries and family celebrations
• Weddings, engagements and special events
• Housewarmings and meaningful home decoration
• Memorials and lasting personal keepsakes
• Thank-you gifts and thoughtful everyday presents
• Business gifts, event items and custom projects

Whether the final piece is decorative, practical, illuminated, engraved, printed, assembled or designed for a special occasion, the purpose remains the same: to create something personal that carries meaning beyond the object itself.

Made to Order in Our Antwerp Atelier

Every AtaNova order is individually prepared in our own Antwerp atelier.

We do not simply add a name to an anonymous mass-produced item and send it on its way. Each order is reviewed, prepared and personalised according to the selected product and the details provided by the customer.

Depending on the design, our work may involve:

• Preparing and refining personalised layouts
• Converting photographs into suitable engraved artwork
• Laser engraving detailed text, illustrations or images
• Laser cutting individual shapes and layered elements
• Personalising flat or cylindrical surfaces where appropriate
• Carefully assembling multi-part products
• Finishing, cleaning and inspecting each completed piece

Some designs require a digital design proof before production. When this is needed, the proof is sent by email so that names, dates, wording, positioning and other important details can be reviewed before the piece is permanently produced.

No mass production. No careless shortcuts. Every order receives personal attention from preparation to final inspection.

Materials Chosen for the Product and Purpose

Different ideas require different materials. Rather than defining AtaNova around one material alone, we select materials according to the design, intended use and finish required for each product.

Depending on the collection, these may include:

• Natural wood and plywood — warm, timeless and ideal for detailed engraving and cutting
• Clear, white and black acrylic — versatile materials suited to modern decorative and illuminated designs
• Gold and silver mirror acrylic — reflective finishes for weddings, celebrations and statement pieces
• Coated and engravable metals — suitable for durable personalised gifts and practical items
• Glass and drinkware surfaces — selected for personalised everyday gifts and special occasions
• Other suitable materials — used when a custom project requires a different solution

Our collection and workshop capabilities continue to grow, but our standards remain the same: the material must suit the product, the personalisation must remain clear and the finished piece must feel carefully made.

Designed Around Your Story

No two customers choose AtaNova for exactly the same reason.

Some are creating a meaningful gift for a partner, parent, child or friend. Others are preparing a wedding, decorating a nursery, preserving an important memory, welcoming guests to an event or looking for a distinctive business gift.

That is why every order begins with your information and your purpose — your names, dates, photographs, words, colours, occasion or idea.

Templates may provide a starting point, but the meaning comes from the story you bring to them.

That personal connection is what makes every AtaNova creation unique.

AtaNova creates a growing collection of personalised gifts, keepsakes, decorative pieces and made-to-order products for individuals, families, weddings, events and businesses.

Our aim is not to remain limited to one product category, material or production method. We develop products around meaningful occasions, practical gift ideas and personalisation possibilities that allow each customer to create something genuinely their own.

What We Create

Our current and growing collection brings together several complementary areas of personalisation.

Personalised Gifts & Keepsakes

Thoughtful gifts created with names, dates, messages, photographs or other personal details.

These pieces may be chosen for birthdays, anniversaries, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Christmas, Valentine’s Day, memorials, thank-you gifts or simply to show someone that they matter.

Baby & Children’s Keepsakes

Personalised products designed to celebrate births, names, childhood milestones and precious family memories.

This category includes pieces for nurseries and children’s rooms, birth details, milestone moments, educational keepsakes and personalised storage.

Personalised Lamps & Photo Gifts

Illuminated and photo-based creations that transform meaningful photographs, names, dates and personal stories into decorative keepsakes.

These include line-art lamps, birth keepsake lamps, personalised night lights, framed illuminated designs and star map creations.

Wedding & Event Personalisation

Made-to-order details designed to help couples, families and organisers create a coordinated and memorable celebration.

These may include wedding welcome signs, table numbers, cake toppers, save-the-date pieces, name signs, decorative signage and other personalised event elements.

Homeware & Personalised Decoration

Personalised products that add identity and meaning to a home, room or shared space.

This category may include name signs, decorative plaques, wall pieces, engraved accessories and creations featuring family names, important dates or personal messages.

Drinkware & Practical Personalised Gifts

As the AtaNova collection continues to grow, it will also expand into personalised drinkware and practical everyday products suitable for names, short messages, logos and gift designs.

These future products will follow the same made-to-order approach, personal review and quality standards as the rest of the AtaNova collection.

Business Gifts & Custom Projects

Not every idea fits inside a standard product page.

We also welcome enquiries for business gifts, employee appreciation items, branded products, event signage, wedding projects and other bespoke creations.

Custom requests are reviewed individually according to the design, quantity, dimensions, material, production requirements and available personalisation options.
