What is the difference between standard plaques versus a custom order?
Every foundry has certain patterns that are in stock such as an 8" x 10". These standard sizes are developed over time from the frequency of orders in that size. If you order a standard size the amount of time and materials used to create that plaque can be determined based on past orders. However, if you order an 8.5" x 6.2" plaque the entire order has to be manufactured from scratch which creates additional labor and material. Other custom items such as a special paint, design, artwork, additional proofs, borders and specific delivery time also create labor hours and overhead that is specific to that one order. Standard sizes are recommended unless your project can not accommodate a standard size or pattern.
