Glasgow Rose Pewter name plate

 To order a nameplate with your name on it first send a question with the spelling of the name and I can send back a rough graphic image of what it will look like..if happy then place an order by pressing the Add to Cart Button below the image.

On sale is a CR Mackintosh / Glasgow Style Pewter, Door Name Plate.

Size is 6 inches long by 1.75 inches high.


The decorative motifs are the famous Mackintosh / Glasgow Rose.

The hand worked lettering is also in the famous Mackintosh/ Glasgow style

They are all hand created using the age old techniques of Repoussé and chasing on soft pewter sheet.

The process of hand lettering and hand  Repoussé and chasing gives each name plate a unique appearance.

Unlike all the other Mackintosh name plates on the market today which are plastic laminate, these are pure British Standard sheet Pewter.

These name plates are hand made in my Studio in Glasgow City Centre.

Please note that these are hand worked pieces, will have slight variations and little imperfections that add to the unique quality of polished pewter.
Many pewter pieces these days are either, pressed in machines or cast from moulds giving them a mechanical appearance

They can be attached by screws to the door or by sticky back tape, which is supplied on the back ready for fitting.
If drilled for screws,  4 screws will be included

Please note that these are hand made to order bespoke items and will vary from name plate to name plate and the intital design I send you is computer generated and can only be used as a rough guide. The lettering will vary from name to name
