Personalised Oak Leaf

| 23rd Oct

We’ve made so many different bespoke wooden gifts over the years, including many green burial markers or headstones, wooden commemorative plaques and memorial plaques. Very recently we were asked to produce a simple and very decorative engraved oak leaf as a memorial plaque for a customer.

The text was sent to us on email, in a particular style font which he liked.

The oak leaf itself was only 20cm long including the stem, making the carved text roughly 3mm in height as we had quite a few letters to fit on this small wooden leaf.

The oak leaf cutout had a small hole drilled into the stem for attaching a cord or ribbon, so the leaf could be hung up in a tree at the Green Burial Plot.

We smoothed off, or softened as we lie to call it, the edges on both sides. This made the leaf so nice to touch when you held it. We spend considerable time smoothing all of our product, sometime rounding off edges can take many hours and it is all done by hand in our Surrey Hills Workshop.

To give you an idea of how small this miniature wooden memorial plaque was, we have placed it next to one of our wooden personalised key fobs which measures 10cm thick x 5cm wide x 15cm long.

Our personalised oak key rings have text measuring roughly 10mm tall. We put a lot of time and effort into every personalised wooden plaque we make, even when it is only very small. Everything has to be perfect.
