Frequently Asked Questions
Our garden plaques are made from solid bronze or aluminum, offering durability and a timeless look. Bronze plaques naturally develop a rich brown or greenish patina over time, enhancing their character without affecting readability. Aluminum plaques are lighter-weight, silver-toned, and protected with a clear coat. Most garden plaques are precision tooled, allowing for crisp, detailed lettering — perfect for memorial dedications and donor recognition.
