“Typewriter quote” in detail

An engraved quote for a personalised family gift

This tile presents your phrase in a typewriter style, in Courier typeface, centred over 4 lines with a signature underneath. It is a personalised family gift for parents, grandparents or a housewarming.

Replace the sample with your family motto, a phrase from the house, a proverb or a short message that feels like you, then sign it: “the family”, a first name, an author. The result stays simple, clear and slightly retro.

Format and presentation

  • Formats: hexagonal 12 × 10 cm or square 13 × 13 cm
  • Presentation: without a hole, for standing, or drilled, for hanging
  • Material: Salernes terracotta
  • Manufacture: laser engraving carried out in our workshop in the Var

The tomette can also be chosen according to the look you want, with the same engraving personalised on a terracotta base. Replace the preview text with your own and choose the format that suits your home.

    J’ai commandé deux tomettes personnalisées pour des amis, avec une date importante pour nous, des coordonnées GPS et un petit verre à mojito que j'ai fait moi :) Ils ont adoré et le cadeau a vraiment fait son effet ! Étant Toulonnais, j’aime aussi beaucoup l’idée de personnaliser un produit local. L’emballage était soigné et la livraison rapide. Très content de ma commande, je recommande !

Your questions about “Typewriter quote”

When will it arrive?

We engrave it to order and dispatch it within 3 working days, often sooner. Then allow 2–3 working days to a pickup point or your door in France (1 working day by Chronopost), and 4–8 working days within the EU. Transit times aren't guaranteed; the estimated date is shown next to the buy button. At busy times, we'll let you know by email if it takes longer.

What if I misspell a name?

Check the preview carefully before ordering. Spotted a mistake? Email contact@mytomette.fr within 24 hours of ordering and we'll correct it before engraving.

What if it arrives damaged?

Send us a photo: if it's damaged in transit or we made a mistake, we'll re-engrave it identically or refund you, even though it's personalised.

Can I return it?

Personalised pieces can't be returned or exchanged (French Consumer Code, art. L221-28), except for defects, breakage or our mistake. That's why the preview shows you the engraving before you buy.

Where can I put it, and how do I hang it?

Solid version: stand it on a shelf or piece of furniture. Hanging version (+€3): it has a hole to hang it from a nail or string. It's a decorative piece to place indoors or outdoors, all year round, frost included, not a floor tile.

Is it ready to give?

Yes: every tile is wrapped in recycled kraft paper, then packed in a sturdy cardboard box, ready to give as it is. The parcel contains no invoice or price.

Can I have it delivered straight to the recipient?

Yes. At checkout, enter their address or pickup point: the parcel goes out with no invoice or price inside, wrapped in kraft paper and ready to give. Your order confirmation comes to you by email.

Can I add my logo or change the font?

Yes, in our online workshop: upload your logo or drawing and choose from over fifty fonts. From 10 pieces, we create a custom design free of charge.

The workshop behind your tile

Our tiles are laser-engraved in our workshop in the Var, on genuine Salernes terracotta. The laser traces every letter precisely, down to the smallest detail. Over a hundred designs to personalise, and Marion prepares every order.

A question about your text, a font or a date? Marion will reply: contact@mytomette.fr

Write to us

Giving it together?

Send the design to family or friends before you personalise it, so everyone can weigh in on the words.
