These are briefly described in the section "Plaque Styles" below. Each is described in more detail in our six  STYLE web pages (click in gold masthead above). 

Most plaque manufacturers only offer a single style or material for plaques; we offer  a wide selection of styles and materials that will fit into nearly any budget.  Our plaques range from simple, low-cost giclee printed flat plaques (they look great by the way, from a distance they look like 3-D carved plaques) to elegant intricately carved 3-D bas-relief, artist-painted, gold and silver-leaf gilded wall plaques. We make plaques in sizes from 8 inches to 12 feet wide. You are welcome to consult with our knowledgeable customer service representatives, Christie, Regina or Elizabeth (LIz).  to select an appropriate custom, personalized or standard plaque style with the appearance you want at an affordable price.

 

On this website we show photos of over 2000 photos of  examples of custom 2-D, engraved, 2.5-D multi-level,  and 3-D bas-relief carved wall and podium plaques that we have made. These feature seals, insignia, emblems, crests, badges, medallions, logos, coat-of-arms, and personnel and scene photos as artwork.  We also make command boards, award, retirement, memorial, perpetual name plates,  and photo  plaques  for government, military, companies, universities, clubs, churches, and homes & families.  We can make a custom or personalized plaque in the size you want with any artwork or text.

Which do you want, a Plaque or a Sign?

Plaques, in contrast with signs,  are usually ornamental and decorative, with a minimum of text and emphasis on artwork.  Plaques can be used to identify, to provide information, or to commemorate an organization, a person or event. They are usually mounted on walls or podiums inside  buildings or ships. However, our plaques can also be mounted on outside walls or monument bases. Signs, as contrasted with plaques,  identify or advertise a place of business, a product, or a location, or can post information, rules  or a direction (e.g. traffic & wayfinding signs). Signs are usually placed at an entrance, on a building,  on a street post, or inside a building, and can be large (up to 30 ft) or small (less than 1 ft wide).

Signs can be mounted between posts, hung from a beam or scroll bracket, mounted on a monument base, or mounted on a wall or roof.  Art Sign Works, Inc, our parent corporation, has made over twelve thousand different types of large and small signs, which can be viewed on www.artsignworks.com.

If you are looking for an exterior sign for a residence or vacation home (including address number /property name signs), farm, ranch, business, professional office, church, park, apartment complex, etc., please visit Art Sign Works, where over 12,000 signs are displayed and organized according to type category (i.e, customer group). The website you are presently on  displays  primarily carved wood and metal indoor plaques, and does not display signs.

PLAQUE  RETAIL PRICES

Our  plaques have wide variations in prices, depending on size and style. The Figure directly below with the three plaques  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 solid wood, artist-painted High-Density-Urethane (HDU) , metal-coated HDU, Sintra board, and Mahogany veneer wood. Our STYLE page describes these in detail.  

All 2000 photos of plaques on this website has a Style Category  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 Style Category (e.g., 1.1.5)  of that plaque, then look up the price for different size plaques with that Style Category on the Price List at the bottom of the PRICE page).

2-D Giclée Economy Plaques. Our lowest price economy 2-D  giclee printed plaques feature digitally-printed full-color giclee printed vinyl appliques mounted on a  round  or rectangular  solid wood or acrylic base. The retail prices for this type of two-dimensional (2-D) flat custom plaque are as low as $150 (Sintra or acrylic base) to $185 (Mahogany veneer wood base) for 10 inch diameter plaques.  A set of 5 individual matched 10 inch diameter service Sintra plaques has a price of $700 plus shipping. The same style plaques in a 18 diameter size have prices of  $235 (Sintra) and $245 (Mahogany veneer) each.  A set of five individual 18 inch diameter matched  Sintra giclée plaques  (an example is Navy, Army, Marine Corps, Air Force, and Coast Guard seal plaques) has a price  of $1050 plus shipping.

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), or for new artwork, that we are provided a print-ready JPEG photo or colored drawing of the artwork for the plaque. These are  Style Categories  1.4.1 ( Mahogany veneer plaque) and 1.4.3 (Sintra plaque)  shown in the table at the bottom of the PRICE page.   Many examples are shown on our 2-D Giclee Plaques web page. A set of five or more service/Agency seal plaques has a discount of 10% compared to these individual plaque prices. We use high-resolution photos of our 3-D carved artist-painted, metal-plated, or stained wood plaques, rather than line drawings from the internet; from a distance they look exactly like our 3-D carved plaques, except they are flat instead of 3-D. They are  gorgeous because of the very high quality glossy color printing.

Carved 2.5-D  Multi-Level Plaques. Our  carved 2.5-D multi-level 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 $350 to $650, depending on art complexity, number of colors, etc.. Prices increase with size.  The table at the bottom of the PRICE page gives prices for carved 2.5-D plaques of various sizes, materials, styles, and number of colors.

 About 80% of our military unit 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 military plaques does not benefit from 3-D rendering, and we recommend a 2.5-D relief carving which looks nearly as good as 3-D and is 1/2 to  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,  university and corporate plaques are carved in 2.5-D relief. 

Carved 3-D Bas-Relief Plaques. 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 great seals, and are often ordered by higher level commands in the military services, federal and state government agencies and courts.  Prices for 18  inch diameter 3-D artist-painted or bronze, brass or silver-plated  HDU or stained wood custom plaques vary from $700 to $950 each. Prices increase with plaque size.  The table at the bottom of the PRICE page 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 4 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.

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.

We do not  mass-produce our  2.5-D or 3-D plaques using molds; even our most popular "standard" plaques such as the US Great Seal or 5 military seals are hand-crafted. Wood plaques have higher prices than High-Density-Urethane (HDU) plaques, and multi-color plaques have higher prices than 1 or 2 color plaques. Metal-plated plaques are more expensive than painted plaques, and 24K gold and silver-leaf gilded plaques have the highest prices of all our plaques, because of the cost of materials and time required by our artisans to precisely hand-gild complex shapes. 

If you have a drawing, a photo or you can describe in words your seal, badge, insignia, crest, or coat-of-arms,  we can create  a custom 2-D, 2.5-D, or 3-D plaque for you in your price range.

About 70% of our plaques are carved in 2.5-D multi-level flat or engraved relief,  using  wood (usually Mahogany, Cedar, or Redwood), or High-Density-Urethane (HDU) as the substrate. These are very popular and look great. Many times the artwork provided to us for custom plaques does not benefit from 3-D rendering, and we recommend a 2.5-D relief carving which looks good and is about half 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, university and corporate plaques are carved in 2.5-D relief. However, our high-visibility government plaques for the White House,  Federal  departments, embassies, Federal & State courts, the Pentagon, State Governments & police & fire departments are carved in 3-D relief to show off the artwork of the seal or badge. Our graphic artists create  2.5-D or 3-D geometric models using advanced graphic design programs, which we then use to control  precision 3-D computer-controlled machines which carve the plaques to specified shapes. Craftsmen then hand-sand  the plaques , which are then artist-painted,  metal-coated, or stained .

Plaque Styles (Materials and Design Features)

We make four general styles (materials) of  plaques: (1)  PAINTED: 3-D (bas-relief) , 2.5-D (multi-level flat or outline relief), and engraved plaques which are artist-painted in many colors, or 1 or 2 colors; (2) METAL:  Metal-plated and solid metal  3-D,  2.5-D, and engraved plaques; (3) STAINED WOOD:Natural and stained 3-D , 2.5-D and engraved hardwood and softwood plaques; and (4) PRINTED GICLEE:  low-priced 2-D flat plaques with  artwork and text digitally printed on long life cast vinyl using a giclee process, mounted on either a solid mahogany or acrylic base.   We can also use two or even three of these styles on a single plaque, such as gold-leaf on Mahogany, aluminum or brass-clad Redwood, giclee vinyl on wood or metal; painted areas on metal or wood, etc.  All  of these can be completely customized, and  are carved by a combination of computer-controlled carving machines and hand-carving, sanding and polishing/burnishing by our craftsmen and artisans. The first three general styles of carved plaques  are shown in Fig 8 below and are described below the  figure.

We Have Three Generic  Styles (Materials) of Carved Dimensional Plaques, Artist-Painted High-Density-Urethane (HDU), Metal-Plated HDU, and Natural/Stained Wood

The five general styles of plaques we make are described below. There are many design variations in size, shape,  carving style, surface finish and color scheme for each of these four general styles, as described below. Click on the gold text to visit that style section. The STYLE section provides  a good overview of our various design styles, and hundreds of photos of examples of plaques we have made with each style are shown in individual style pages. You can click on the gold text to go to the web page that describes this style in more detail.

 

1. Artist-painted  plaques. These are precisely carved from High-Density-Urethane (HDU) (sometimes wood), and are hand-painted by our artisans with artist brushes and  air-brushes with high-quality, long-lasting automotive-type sign enamels. They can be carved in three different styles: (1) three dimension (3-D) bas-relief,  (2) 2.5-D flat or outline relief, or (3) engraved  (V-carved or flat bottom)as shown in Fig 7 above. These are painted in multi-color, two colors, or a single color scheme with the highest quality paints available, Matthews polyurethane acrylic (MAP) paint and 1-Shot sign enamels.

2.  Metal-plated  plaques  These are carved from from High-Density-Urethane (HDU)  and are then plated with bronze, brass, copper, nickel-silver , aluminum , or stainless steel  metals, or gilded  with 24K gold (see plaque on left) or fine 0.99 silver. They can be carved in 3 different styles, similar to painted plaques, 3-D, 2.5-D and engraved  (see Fig 7 above).  We polish and burnish the text and artwork, and can paint or apply a patina to the backgrounds to provide higher contrast.  We also offer solid cast 3-D and 2.5-D bronze and aluminum plaques.  

>       

3. Natural and stained solid wood plaques.  These are carved  from premium grade kiln-dried clear heart furniture-grade woods  such as African Mahogany, American Walnut, Western Red Cedar, California Redwood, Maple, American Cherry, and Red Oak. They also can be carved in 3 different styles, 3-D, 2.5-D, and engraved (see Fig 7).  These are either stained or left natural, and then clear-coated twice to give a fine finish. Sometimes we paint text and the artwork with colors, and leave the background natural or stained.

4. Economy 2-D  Giclee photo prints on Mahogany veneer & Sintra  plaques .   These economical plaques have artwork and text which are digitally-printed in  brilliant colors on long lasting sign vinyl. We usually use high-resolution photos of our  carved 3-D  or 2.5-D artist-painted, metal-plated or wood  plaques we have made previously  (see Items 1 through 3 above), rather than drawings, so these look like dimensional plaques at a distance. However, we can also incorporate a high-resolution photograph  or drawing  supplied by the client or available on the internet as The Giclee appliques can be mounted on either a 1/2 inch thick Mahogany veneer  or a 1/2 inch thick Sintra board  substrate.

5. Perpetual Plaques and Award, Recognition, and Chain-of-Command Boards 

We design and fabricate custom wood and HDU perpetual plaques and award, recognition, chain-of-command and organization chart boards and wall plaques of all sizes from 24 inches to 120 inches wide, for all five military  services, police and fire departments, Federal, state and city government agencies, corporations and companies, and  clubs of all types, including civic, golf, yacht , and fraternal . These can use easily replaceable photos and/or engraved brass plates with the names of past & present officers, club champions, or award winners.  They all have multiple names, ranging from those with a few  photos to  several dozen or even hundreds of  brass plates . These plaques are typically made of wood (African Mahogany, Redwood, Cedar and Oak) but we also make them from  High-Density Urethane (HDU).

You can click on a specific style of a plaque listed in the pull-down menu in the gold masthead at the top of the page STYLE to go to a page which shows photos of many dozens of examples of this style along with descriptions and prices.

We can make any plaque you want out of natural wood (stained), artist-painted High-Density-Urethane (HDU),  or plate them with any of several types of metallic coatings/color schemes, or combinations of these techniques.  We can also put digitally printed long-lasting full color giclee vinyl (photos of family members, scenes, objects, or very elaborate painted or digital art) as an applique on any HDU or wood plaque. 

Fig 9 - We Can Combine our Our Wide Variety of Carving, Materials and Coating Techniques to Produce Elegant and Unique Plaques 

We can combine different carving techniques,  materials, and painting / staining / plating / gilding methods on a  single plaque. The Figure above shows 3 examples. 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. The contrast between the shiny metal and rough dark wood is striking. We can hand-gild  V-carved text of Mahogany plaques with 24K gold or silver leaf. We also make separate cut-out metal, stained wood and painted HDU letters. We can provide a 3-D bas-relief cast bronze or aluminum  plaque featuring the face or figure of a person if we are provided a good photograph.

Testimonials

Hey, Liz!
We received the golf plaque yesterday— it is AWESOME!   It’s very pretty and much more detailed than I imagined.  We can’t wait to hang it outside later this spring. (Although it’s going to be 70 degrees here this weekend, so maybe we don’t need to worry about a typical rough winter here in Cincinnati!!). Thanks for your help throughout this purchase.  Happy New Year! Jackie

Elizabeth,  The sign arrived today and looks fantastic! Thank you for everything. I was thoroughly impressed with your companies thoroughness and promptness and will certainly recommend you to government agencies/businesses in Massachusetts. On a side note,   I will send you a photo after the sign is mounted. Thanks again! Sergeant J.R W. MA Police Department

Hello Liz, We received our artwork today. I can’t tell you how satisfied we all are here at the Co-Cathedral of St. Robert Bellarmine. This shield came out so beautiful and just in time. We will be hosting a Chrism Mass with our Bishop and all 135 priests of the Diocese of Trenton and they will be able to enjoy it as well, as it will be hung in our main hall where there will be a dinner held for the clergy. I just wanted to share this with you and your artists. I would expect you might even get more business from our Diocesan Parishes once they see how beautiful it came out. Thank you, F.E., Parish Operations Manager

Hi Liz, I hope all is well! We received the sign, and it looks great! Are you able to provide a quote for another one of that same sign, 18 inches in height? (This one was 12 inches)Could we also get a quote for a sign of the attached badge? We'd like to get a sign of the same sort/type as the first one, also 18 inches in height. For the badge number (it is 9 in the attachment), can we put 911? Thank you! D.W., Police Department

Regina, The seals arrived yesterday and they are beautiful.  The photos really don’t do them justice. Thank you for all your help and have a great weekend. Susan

Hi Christie, The sign came out awesome.  Would you be able to create just the seal for us?  I’m not sure what size the seal on the sign is, but we are looking for a full-color seal for our new podium.  I’ve attached a web link and picture of the podium along with the specs. Please advise. Thanks, J.M.,  Department of Labor & Industrial Relations

Good morning Regina, We received our order for the logo plaques  and I just wanted to thank you. The logo plaques  turned out beautifully and my supervisory team loves them.

I think there is a possibility of needing to order another of the larger plaque at some point in the future, so if at all possible to keep the artwork on file it would be appreciated. Hoping you and yours had a very Happy Holidays. Warm regards, Peter
