Commissioning a unique letter carving is a collaborative experience for both you as the person making the request and me as the carver. Each commission is different by its very nature so great care is taken to complete the right design to befit the occasion and the chosen words.
The commission process starts with an initial meeting to discuss what you are looking for, the lettering style and type of stone. From that meeting I will provide you with a quote and a sketch. Timing of the project will be based on a number of factors.
Testimonial:
“We commissioned Ellie at Bloxham Studio to create a gift and piece of art for our friend’s birthday. We were involved during the entire creative process … from selecting the type of lettering to the type of stone all the way to the final packaging and presentation. It was a wonderful experience to be a part of. We absolutely loved the final outcome and our friend is enjoying a unique sculpture. Many thanks and we highly recommend Bloxham Studio if you are looking for something unique.”
