Hand-lettered and decorated testimonials inscribed on archival paper or vellum and richly decorated with hand embossed 23K gold, silver or palladium, decorated with watercolor or gouache letters and border say thank you in a very special way.
When framed in our studio, the testimonial becomes a lasting tribute for a job well done or a life well lived. Testimonials are a cost effective way for expressing the highest and warmest thoughts in a permanent way. Over the years we have been helpful to some of our clients in editing phrases and saying things in a special way that gives added meaning to their recognition award.
