Photo Etch Plaques

A less expensive alternatives to cast bronze plaques, the photo etch plaque is suitable for interior display only, as it will not withstand exposure to the elements over a period of time. These plaques can be created in a variety of sizes, based on the scale selected for the portrait and the copy included. Working from a photograph, a sketch is first created of the individual, which we will fax or email to you for approval. Once approved, a magnesium plate is created, with the portrait raised off the surface in a brushed finish. The textured background is then painted in one of a variety of colors (black, brown, green, red, etc.) This plate is then affixed to a finished walnut plaque for wall mounting. Any copy (wording) will be typeset and either engraved on a brass plate mounted on the walnut plaque, or set in raised type as part of the portrait plate. The photo is not harmed during this process and will be returned to you with the completed plaque.
