The Plaque
A wide plaque with a shaped top and a raised border. A rolling pin lies along the foot with two lemons and leaves beside it, and the recipe runs across the field in the handwriting it was written in, with the title at the head and the signature at the end.
Craftsmanship
Electroformed metal over a sculpted form, finished in antique brass. The writing, the rolling pin and the lemons stand off a dark textured ground at more than one height, so the piece reads as modeled rather than stamped. The metal is bonded to the surface rather than painted or plated, so there is nothing on it to chip, flake or peel.
Sealed under a UV-protective finish. It suits a kitchen wall and wipes clean.
Personalization
Photograph the recipe card flat, in daylight, with all four edges in frame, and we follow the handwriting exactly, abbreviations and all. Stains and creases are fine; we work from what is there. Or type a title and up to six lines, and they are set in the lettering shown. A design preview comes back by email, and once you approve it the piece leaves the workshop in five to seven business days.
