Poppy Address Plaque in Antique Brass

The Sign

An arched plate with soft shoulders and a spray of poppies at the foot, the blooms open and the buds still closed on their stems. Three lines: the number large across the middle, the street below, and the town and state small at the bottom.

Craftsmanship

Electroformed metal over a sculpted form, finished in antique brass. The lettering and the design 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 and weather-treated, so it holds its color outside, on a gatepost, a pillar or the wall by the door.

Personalization

The number, the street, and the town and state are yours, as 1724, CYPRESS LANE, and CARMEL, CALIFORNIA are in the pictures. Only the number is required. A design preview comes back by email, and once you approve it the sign leaves the workshop in five to seven business days.
