Custom commemorative Bronze Plaques dedication plaques, fire stations awards, parks, gardens or landmarks

Custom Bronze Plaques

Bronze plaques are beautiful, durable and will last for generations. Perfect to use for  for commemorations, memorials, landmarks, fire stations and buildings, land and conservation trusts, town parks and gardens.

Like our bells, the pure bronze plaques are sand cast and made by hand using traditional bronze casting methods.

 

***Due to the current uncertainty surrounding imports to the USA from our shop in Sweden, we must suspend sales of custom lettered bells until we solve this issue.  Unlettered bells, brackets and candlesticks can be ordered online as usual. We are very sorry for any inconvenience as we navigate this unfortunate circumstance. We hope to soon continue making these beautiful bells available as we have for over 30 years.

Differences in color are due to the photographs being taken in different lighting, venues and times of day.

 

The plaques above are examples of our standard sand cast pure bronze plaques. Lettering is in upper case. We can use different letter sizes to add interest or emphasis.

If desired, your plaque can either be drilled (screw holes) or have pegs on the back for mounting in wet concrete. The patina can be bronze or we can oxidize your plaque. Letters on oxidized plaques can be left, or polished on the top.

Plaque thickness is about 10mm (3/8”).  For example, a 24” x 36” plaque will weigh over 100 pounds.

This plaque is oxidized, with the letter tops polished.  If you have a custom plaque idea, email for a quote.  Please include the size of the plaque, and your layout and art in black and white .pdf file.

At the right is an example of  bronze plaques which have been oxidized, then the tops of the letters are polished. This letter style (font)  is special order, we  have a model made with the letters in your plaque and then cast in sand from it.
