The making

Eight things happen between your photo and your box

  1. 01

    Photograph it

    Press the mold, then photograph it. Light and angle are our problem, not yours.

  2. 02

    We judge it

    Before anything is started the print is checked. If it is not clear enough we tell you and the order does not move.

  3. 03

    We place it

    Your print is sculpted from that photo by hand and laid out with the name and the dates you choose.

  4. 04

    Made in pieces

    The face, the imprint and the weighted back are made apart, then assembled by hand.

  5. 05

    Colour

    Colour and protective coat go on in layers, each one dried before the next. That is why it takes time.

  6. 06

    Seams finished

    Base and cover are joined so the piece reads as one form, with no seam to find.

  7. 07

    We look again

    Before it is boxed, a person checks it once more.

  8. 08

    It ships

    Inside a cradle printed for this one piece, because no two pieces are the same shape.
