We can make plaques and signs in whatever shape you'd like, with text, pictures, or logos engraved or carved. A variety of materials can be used. We'll work with you and send you proofs so it will be just the way you want it. This custom guitar shaped plaque was commissioned by the members of a musical ensemble for their director, in the shape of his Gibson guitar, 28" long. It's made out of white oak, engraved, with a little bit of stain applied to the engraving, and finished with a spar urethane for outdoor durability. We included hardware for mounting on a wall. The "Family" plaque was made to commemorate a birth, and is engraved and carved into solid cherry. The footprints are carved in 3D from a scan of the baby's actual footprints. Let us know what kind of plaque you're looking for, what type of wood and finish, whether the plaque will be displayed outdoors or indoors, and your timeframe. We look forward to working with you to design a piece that you'll love.
