Honor Your Service with the Industry Gold Standard in Air Force Shadow Boxes
When it comes to preserving the legacy of a United States Air Force career, compromise is not an option. Your years of dedication, sacrifice, and achievement deserve a display that reflects the dignity of the uniform you wore. At MasterPlaques, we specialize in creating the world’s finest custom Air Force wooden shadow boxes. Unlike mass-produced alternatives found at hobby shops or generic trophy stores, our products are true furniture-quality heirlooms, designed to last a lifetime and be passed down to future generations. We are the industry Gold Standard for military display cases, setting the benchmark for craftsmanship and durability.

Hand-Carved Solid Mahogany: A Tribute to Excellence
Every shadow box we create is handcrafted from solid, kiln-dried Philippine mahogany. We do not use cheap veneers, synthetic woods, or particle board. Our wood is expertly treated to prevent warping and twisting, ensuring your display maintains its structural integrity for decades. Each piece is hand-carved by master artisans who treat every project as a work of art. Whether you prefer a rich, hand-painted full-color finish that captures the vibrancy of official Air Force heraldry or a natural wood finish (available in light or dark tones) that highlights the beautiful grain of the mahogany, our craftsmanship is unmatched. We seal every box with a high-gloss lacquer to protect the wood and provide a stunning, professional sheen.

Superior Protection for Your Cherished Memorabilia
Your medals, ribbons, patches, and coins are not just objects; they are tangible memories of your service history. To protect them, we use only real tempered glass in our viewing panels—never plastic or plexiglass, which can scratch and yellow over time. The interior of each Air Force shadow box is lined with high-quality, cushion-lined velvet, providing a plush background that makes your awards pop while allowing for easy pinning and arrangement. Our cases often feature recessed keyholes for flush wall mounting and are secured with high-quality nickel clasps that resist tarnishing, ensuring easy access to the interior should you need to add or adjust items.

Fully Customizable Designs for Every Rank and Career
No two careers are the same, and your shadow box should be as unique as your service record. We offer a comprehensive range of standard designs tailored to specific ranks, from E-6 Technical Sergeant to E-9 Chief Master Sergeant, as well as officer ranks and specific ratings like Air Crew or Security Police. Beyond our standard offerings, we excel in custom designs. If you can imagine it, we can build it. We offer free design services with no set-up fees, allowing you to create a completely custom shape—such as a badge, stripe, or aircraft tail flash—that perfectly encapsulates your time in the USAF. You will receive a digital mockup for approval before production begins, ensuring every detail is perfect.

Veteran-Owned and Committed to Serving You
As a U.S. Military veteran-owned SDVOSB business, we understand the importance of getting this right. We take pride in serving those who have served. We offer free standard shipping on orders, with expedited options available for tight deadlines like retirement ceremonies or promotion parties. Don’t settle for anything less than the best. Choose MasterPlaques for a display case that honors the Air Force core values: Integrity First, Service Before Self, and Excellence in All We Do.
