PEWTER DOGWOOD FLOWER PICTURE

 

PEWTER DOGWOOD FLOWER PICTURE

 

The Dogwood is the Provincial Flower of British Columbia

 

This beautiful work of art measures 6" x 6" with a fine pewter sculpture inside a brushed pewter frame and grey matte.It is complete with a hanger on the reverse.

 

Chris Jones starts with original artwork from a variety of sources. These include commissioning local artists' work, wildlife and scenic photography and works used under license. The original artwork is laser imaged and an electronic template is made to the size of the eventual pewter casting. (Normally about 1.5" to 2" square).When the laser image and template have been approved, decisions are made as to how much relief there will be when the image is produced in pewter. This relief refers to the depth of the image when cast in pewter and varies from about 1/8" to 3/8" deep depending on the scene.

 

 

Pewter is a fairly soft metal with a rich lustre and colour and it takes detail in the casting process very well. The softness of the material and the detail in our work would render these pieces quite fragile if used in an everyday manner, but our presentation makes the difference. Each piece is matted using only the highest quality acid-free archival rag matte boards then framed using the best Nielsen Florentine finish metal mouldings.
