Our bronze plaques (such as the cast bronze nameplate shown on the left) are created from molten bronze alloy and are solid bronze - typically 3/8" to 5/8" thick.  They are used for both indoor and outdoor applications and last forever.  There are two levels to the plaque - raised and background.  In this example, the text is raised and the background is not.  A bronze plaque around the size of a standard sheet of paper will cost around $350 (text only) and hold about 160 characters.

Our engraved plaques are used for indoor applications and are typically prersented to a recipient as an award.  They can also be used as a 'rush order' dedication board when the expense of a rush order bronze plaque stretches the budget.   An engraved plaque around the size of a standard sheet of paper can cost less than $100 (text only) and hold over 350 characters.  Our engraved plaques can be supplied in numerous styles as shown on our sister site here.

When a group of individuals are honored in the setting of a bronze plaque, these engraved plaques can be made to duplicate the text and graphics on the bronze plaque and be presented to each individual as a 'take home' award.
