It's an extremely hard metal, the ring for example can't be resized, so I'd imagine that it can only be done by laser. I'd imagine it will be pretty difficult to find a jewellers in Ireland that can do it, maybe searching online for somewhere you can send the ring to get the engraving would be more fruitful.

I would imagine it could be engraved with rotary diamond bits, which are common and cheap. Tungsten carbide cutting tools are formed using Diamond cutting tools.

The problem might be if the engraving requires a very fine line.
