Plaques
are cast according to your specifications. There are no pre-cast
ready-to-ship plaques offered.
Available seals are NOT
limited to the ones depicted below. If a new seal design was created tomorrow,
it could still be cast. These are simply examples.
There is a molding charge for bas reliefs. Please
see price charts linked below for available sizes and prices for single-color
flat relief.

An oft-asked question:"What is
the difference between "Flat Relief" vs Bas Relief?" Bas is
sculptural. Flat isn't; it's either upper level A or lower level B; no
dimensions in between. Think of bas reliefs = "rolling hills", flat
reliefs = "plateaus".

Bas Relief Army
Brazos County
Project: Most flat relief cast plaques can be size scaled. E.g., if you want
your plaque as 16.669" in diameter, consider it done. Bas relief plaques are
"a whole 'nother animal". An artist with a spouse, 2.2 kids, a mortgage
and a car note sat down with clay and made the mold. Working molds are tossed
after the plaque is cast... unless a metal mold is made beforehand. It's
not possible to scale working or metal molds to any size mechanically; another
mold must be hand-made.
Metal molds do exist of some great plaque designs for projects done for
customers across the U.S.. Neither we nor any competitor have a list (except for Branch of Service seals,
Historic Register, Veterans Features, etc.). A prospect inquired if we had a mold of the State of Texas seal with prismatic star and
bas relief aspect of laurel leaves as 36". Turned out we did. The
text ring indicating "County of Brazos" was easily incorporated.
The
2010 cast bronze replication of the TX state seal is depicted upper left.
Inquire about your specific bas relief design, regardless of state or county.
Who knows, it might even exist, avoiding modeling charges.
