Where will the plaque be located? What will the plaque be adhered to? Do you want a 3D dimensional Bas Relief sculpture, a flat relief portrait or a metal photo? Do you want the background to be plain, pebbled, or leatherette? Do you want a special paint for the background or perhaps a custom border? Look on our site, as well as other sites on the internet that specialize in Bronze Plaques, for ideas on designing your plaque. Once you have an idea on the type of plaque you want get several quotes. Be sure to ask if they are a distributor, supplier or manufacturer. Why? Price will vary, quality will vary, and delivery time will vary. When you order a plaque from a distributor they are the middle man between the manufacturer and the retail outlet. Plaques are typically ordered through wholesale manufacturers and then sold through retail venues. Very few manufactures sell direct to customers due to the one-of-a-kind nature of plaques. The direct cutomer/producer realtionahip is lost and the customer may not end up with the best plaque possible.   Featured Project 18" Diameter Aluminum Hand Painted Seal
