The border on a cast plaque is cast integral with the plaque and is generally highlighted by either a stroke-sander, a buffing wheel or hand-rubbed to provide a pleasing contrast with the background finish.

Pricing: $3.00 per Perimeter Linear Inch, meaning: If you have an 18" x 24" plaque, add 18 + 18 + 24 + 24 = 84 X $3.00 = $252 for the additional cost of the elaborate border.

 Helpful Hints

	Most of our standard borders are sized in proportion to the size of the plaque. If exact border dimensions are required (for example, to match an existing plaque) please specify when ordering.
	In addition to the width of the ornamental borders shown, custom widths may be sculpted by our pattern makers.
	Most of our borders - particularly the ornamental and flat decorative styles - may be cast and provided in lengths for use with other sign or decorative elements.
