PORTRAIT-IMAGE OPTIONS / PLAQUES
Etched Portrait on Metal
The etching process allows you to forever replicate your photograph, line
drawing or complex artwork in beautiful detail. This method utilizes a halftone dot pattern made from a 50-line screen. Halftone portraits resemble newspaper photographs, and have visible dot patterns. The etched, recessed dots are filled with black paint to contrast with the brushed finish of the metal background. The best photographs for halftone etched portraits have high contrast tones with bright white areas, dense black areas and minimal gray tones. (Photos that are monotone or have muted colors will produce poor halftone etchings.) Halftone etchings are available in stainless steel, bronze, brass and copper. Up to 9” - $365 - Larger than 9”, see page 218. Price shown does not include the cost of the plaque
Giclée Print
Giclée (pronounced “zhee-clay”) is the term for high quality reproductions of works of art utilizing high-resolution ink-jet printers. Gemini can use this process to apply your images as inserts into your architectural plaques. Our giclée prints render UV-cured, non-elastic inks at up to 1200 dpi resolution.
The combination of our high-resolution printing, abrasion-resistant clear coat and premium base materials results in a picture perfect product that is excellent for all indoor applications and even some exterior ones. Add the printing charge from the table at the right to your plaque price.
