The History Behind the Rhode Island Seal
The Great Seal of the State of Rhode Island is steeped in history, featuring the famous anchor symbol which dates back to the mid-17th century. The anchor, a symbol of hope, is surmounted by the word “HOPE” itself, reflecting the state’s motto. Surrounding the central design is the text “Seal of the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations 1636.” Our artisans meticulously study these historical details to ensure every plaque is an accurate representation of the official seal. We understand that this is not just a decoration; it is a symbol of authority, history, and civic pride.
Exquisite Craftsmanship and Bas-Relief Detail
What sets our plaques apart is the depth and dimension of the artwork. Unlike flat, printed decals found on lesser products, our plaques are hand-carved from solid mahogany wood. We utilize a technique known as bas-relief, where the design projects slightly from the background, creating a sculptural effect that catches the light and adds profound depth to the piece.
Each State of Rhode Island plaque is:
-
Hand-Carved: Our skilled craftsmen carve the anchor, the lettering, and the border by hand, ensuring that no two plaques are exactly alike.
-
Hand-Painted: After carving, the plaque is hand-painted with vibrant, long-lasting colors that match the official state specifications, or finished with a rich wood stain for a more traditional look.
-
Solid Mahogany: We use only high-quality, kiln-dried mahogany, known for its durability and fine grain, ensuring your plaque resists warping and cracking over time.
Customization to Fit Your Needs
While the official seal is a standardized design, we offer flexibility in how you want your plaque presented. Because we manufacture everything in-house, we can customize the size to fit specific wall spaces, ranging from smaller desktop versions to massive wall-mounted displays for auditoriums.
We can also add personalized text, such as names, dates of service, or department titles, making these plaques perfect gifts for retiring officials, judges, or military personnel.
