PLAQUE STYLES
We make wood (Mahogany, Cedar, Walnut, Maple, Oak), artist-painted High-Density-Urethane (HDU), and metal-plated (bronze, brass, copper, German silver, aluminum) wall plaques as shown throughout this and other photo galleries on this website. We can customize the size, shape, carving relief, text, materials, and color scheme of any plaque shown on this page, and we can make a custom plaque for ANY artwork or logo you may have. Send us a drawing, a photo or a rough sketch, and we will design and make a carved dimensional plaque to your specifications. We can make plaques that are engraved (V-carved or flat bottom) , 2.5-D (flat or outline relief), or 3-D (sculptured bas-relief). We have a large library of existing 3-D and 2.5-D computer geometric models that we use to carve these plaques, which greatly reduces graphic artist labor costs. Visit the Plaque Styles section to view more detailed descriptions and many examples of painted HDU, metal-plated, and wood plaques. All our plaques are manufactured in the USA by American craftsmen.
We can also combine materials on a plaque. We often use Mahogany plaque boards and carve 3-D HDU appliques which are either multi-color painted or metal-plated, to mount on the Mahogany. We can cut out text and artwork from thin sheets of aluminum and mount these on 2.5-D Mahogany or cedar plaques with raised text and art; we call these metal-clad wood plaques. The contrast between the shiny metal and rough dark wood is striking. We often gild V-carved text of Mahogany plaques with 24K gold or silver leaf. We can also gild areas of painted HDU plaques, usually raised text and art. We also make separate cut-out metal, stained wood and painted HDU letters. We can provide a 3-D bas-relief cast bronze and aluminum memorial or living person plaque featuring the face or figure of a founder, president, executive, etc. if we are provided a good photograph.
Although we show primarily painted High-Density-Urethane plaques on this page, we can make any plaque out of natural wood (stained) or put any of several types of metallic coatings/color schemes on them. We can also put digitally printed long-lasting full color vinyl (photos or very elaborate painted or digital art) as an applique on any HDU or wood plaque. For organization charts, we can make photo frames with glass covers where photos and names can be easily replaced when there are personnel changes.
Fig. 4 -This photo shows the Boardroom in a Corporate headquarters building We can make custom carved 3-D or 2.5-D wall plaques featuring the Corporation's logo. These can be on a wall next to the entrance door, on a wall in the reception area, in an auditorium, in a boardroom as shown above, or in the Office of the the President/CEO.
PLAQUE RETAIL PRICES
Our plaques have wide variations in prices, depending on size and style. Fig. 5 below shows our three basic relief styles, 2-D flat relief , 2.5-D multi-level relief, and 3-D bas-relief. These can be made of different materials, including natural wood, artist-painted High-Density-Urethane (HDU) , metal-coated HDU, and acrylic. Our STYLE page describes these in detail. All 2000 photos of plaques on this website has a Style Category and a Price Code listed in the second or third paragraph in the text description under the photo (click on the photo or title to expand the photo and read the text to get the price code of that plaque, then look up the price for different size plaques with that style on the Price List at the bottom of the PRICE page).
Fig 5 - We make plaques in three different levels of relief, as shown above. Engraved plaques are in the same price category as 2.5-D relief plaques. Prices increase from left to right.
Our lowest price economy 2-D plaques feature digitally-printed full-color giclee vinyl appliques mounted on a round or rectangular a solid wood or acrylic base. The retail prices for this type of two-dimensional (2-D) flat custom plaque are as low as $80 (acrylic base) to $120 (Mahogany solid wood base) for 10 inch diameter plaques. The same style plaques in a 18 diameter size have prices of $120 (acrylic) and $220 (Mahogany). These low prices assume we have made a previous plaque of the same artwork design (featured in one of our Galleries of over 2000 photos, including photos of 3-D plaques such as shown below), or for new artwork, that we are provided a print-ready JPEG digital photo or colored drawing of the artwork for the plaque (this can be a good high-resolution photo of an existing seal). These are styles 1.4.1 (Price Code EA, wood base) and 1.4.3 (Price Code EB, acrylic base) on our PRICE page, with examples shown on our 2-D Giclee Plaque web page.
>
Our carved 2.5-D multi-level raised or engraved hand-crafted and artist-painted plaques have prices about twice that of the 2-D flat plaques with giclee printed art. These prices depend on the size, material, carving complexity, and number of colors. Prices for custom carved 18 inch diameter 2.5-D artist-painted HDU or stained wood custom plaques vary from $240 to $370. Prices increase with size. The PRICE page gives prices for carved 2.5-D plaques of various sizes, materials, styles, and number of colors. About 70% of our company seal and logo plaques are carved in 2.5-D multi-level flat or engraved relief, using High-Density-Urethane (HDU) as the substrate. These are very popular and look great. Many times the artwork provided to us for custom seals does not benefit from 3-D rendering, and we recommend a 2.5-D relief carving which looks nearly as good and is about 2/3 the price. Our 2.5-D relief plaques carve faster and are much faster to paint than 3-D bas-relief plaques, so they have lower prices. Most of our military and many of our government and corporate plaques are also carved in 2.5-D relief.
Our premium plaques are carved in 3-D bas-relief using wood (usually Mahogany, Cedar, or Redwood), or High-Density-Urethane (HDU) as the substrate. These are higher- priced carved 3-D bas-relief artist-painted plaques, and have prices about 3 times that of the 2-D plaques. These are very high quality plaques, which usually feature complex seals, and are often displayed on the entrance to a company building, in an entrance lobby, in a conference room or auditorium, or in am executive's office. Prices for 18 inch diameter 3-D artist-painted or bronze, brass or silver-plated HDU or stained wood custom plaques vary from $380 to $560. Gold- and silver-leafed plaques have higher prices. Prices increase with plaque size. The PRICE list gives prices for carved 3-D plaques of various sizes, materials, styles, and number of colors. These high-quality plaques may require from 8 to 24 hours of machine carving time, and then 6 to 8 hours of artisan work to hand-sand and artist-brush paint or metal polish them. They are unique works-of-art for our most discriminating clients.
