An actual engraving

Made from a photo.
Finished with care.

This is a real photograph of a finished Portraits in Metal plaque, our sister brand. It shows the detail and metal texture of a portrait engraving; it is not a photograph of one of the three models on this site.

Why just three plaques?

When you are remembering a pet, choosing a keepsake should not mean learning about dozens of sizes and fixings. We keep it to a round keepsake on a small wooden easel stand that we make ourselves, a standing keepsake and a stainless steel garden stake. We don’t drop your photo into a fixed template. We lay out each plaque to suit the photo you send, and give the picture as much room as possible. Their name, dates and any short line are fitted around it. Every price includes UK delivery.

Our design process, honestly

We turn your photograph into a fine-line engraving with our design tools, including AI-assisted tools. Every design is checked and finished by eye before you see it. We do not describe the portraits as hand-drawn. You receive a free preview so you can judge the likeness and check the wording before paying.

What the pictures show

Our room and garden scenes are mock-ups: the exact engraving artwork is composited onto a blank plaque in a realistic scene. They show how the designs could look at home, not a finished customer order. We label these pictures. The example pets and their source photographs are illustrations, not customer submissions.

Studio renders and flat artwork are labelled too. Any real finished-plaque photograph is identified as such. We do not publish a customer’s pet photograph or design without permission.
