 Etched plaques are reproduced by exposing a piece of film onto a photosensitive metal plate. This allows for reproduction of extremely fine detail.

Maximum sized etched plaque is 24" X 20" with 23" X 19" image area

Helpful Hints

Everdur is a very close color match to our cast bronze alloy. When using etchings for mounting to a bronze plaque, we will automatically choose Everdur for the etched piece. If etchings and castings are being used together on the same project, specify Everdur.

Muntz Metal, Yellow Brass and Everdur are all sheet alloys of brass and are recommended for interior use only.

Stainless Steel etchings are not protected by a clear coating and are suitable for exterior use.
