Copper Cactus Sculpture
This is a custom piece I did at the request of a couple remodeling their Central Texas home. It is approximately 6 feet across. the copper has been alternatively patinated and textured with either a torch patina, or a verde/green patina. Texture comes from a variety of hammering techniques. Included are three copper butterflies and three hummingbirds, all species indigenous to central Texas. A piece similar to this can be custom made in a variety of sizes. This 6 ft size cost $5000.

For Wexler Sconce colors4.8I haven't had the wall sconce installed by an electrician yet, but it is beautiful. Exactly as Dale described (and sent a couple pictures to me in process, so we could discuss the product as it was made!) Dale works with you to make the size you want, textures, etc. Very good experience--my first with Custom Made.

For Custom Metal Door Panels5.0Working with Dale was terrific. Super easy and flexible with design input and overall project. I could not be more thrilled with final copper door panel. It is a beautiful piece of art that we will treasure always. Thank you Dale!

For Fire sconces5.0Dale was completely accessible and communicative. She came in under budget and when I changed some things, there was no financial issues. She shipped when she said she would and it arrived quickly. She obviously put a huge effort in the design and it shows. Lots of compliments on our sconces already. I would HIGHLY recommend her. Lots of questionable designers out there...not Dale.

For Mirror5.0My experience was great from beginning to end. It was as easy as sending a couple pictures of mirrors that I liked. Dale was able to capture the look I wanted, sent examples of his work, & kept in constant communication even when I didn't have specific questions. He sent me a picture of the finished work & kept me updated on the shipping process. The mirror is beautiful - the picture he sent didn't do it justice. All in all, very happy with the process & his work.
