Resolutions for 2016: Sharing Our Story

Written by Masterwork Plaques | January 4, 2016

During the month of January, Masterwork Plaques will be posting a weekly blog entry spelling out our new year's resolutions for 2016.  This past year has been a time of change and growth for our studio, and we are planning on growing even more in the year to come.  

The first step is telling you more about who we are.

MASTERWORK PLAQUES IS A SMALL BUSINESS.  

Don't let this deter you.  As a small business, we can be personable, attentive and flexible when it comes to working with our customers.  Masterwork Plaques is a workshop of highly skilled metal artists, and though there may be fewer of us on staff than our competitors, we work quickly and efficiently with years of metal-making experience.  Your custom project receives our close attention.

OUR STUDIO IS UNIQUELY EXPERIENCED.

Masterwork Plaques creates custom bronze plaques for the following uses:  building management signage, commemorative and dedication plaques, national register plaques, water-jet cut lettering, bas-relief portraits, inset medallions, awards, logos, donor plaques--the list goes on and on.  If you can imagine it, we can probably create it.

Our studio carries a selection of different metals at a variety of price ranges.  While cast bronze plaques are the most popular choice, we also offer aluminum plaques, brass plaques, and stainless steel plaques, in addition to zinc, copper, and muntz plaques.  Each metal has its own range of benefits, and the variety of metal options allows our customers to select what works best for them.

MASTERWORK IS BASED IN NYC, SHIPPING NATIONALLY.

Our design studio is located in Brooklyn, NY within a community of skilled artisans and entrepreneurs of many trades.  We take advantage of our location as much as possible.  We believe in supporting local businesses and do our best to work with small companies in the surrounding area.  Providing finely crafted, American-made products to our customers makes us proud.

Our studio can ship to clients across the country, and can often ship overseas.  We have clients in all 50 states, and have shipped to Canada and France among other countries.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Masterwork Plaques is a custom plaque-making studio, interested in creating one-of-a-kind plaques for businesses, building management, dedications and commemorative occasions. Our studio came into being from the desire to revolutionize the metal plaque industry, which is filled with mass-produced signage and standard memorial plaques.  We founded a business where each plaque is created from unique designs and materials of the finest quality.  We believe that plaques made to commemorate the special events in life should be, well, special!
