Someone you miss, as you remember them
Sculpted from your photos in the clothes and the pose you most remember them in, on a base engraved with their name.
Your idea, made real
Photos of someone you have lost are precious, and flat. A memorial figurine gives them a presence in the room again: in the cardigan they always wore, in their chair, with the dog at their feet. It can be made for an unveiling, an anniversary, or a quiet shelf at home, and you set the pace.
What to send us
- The clearest photos you have of their face, from any year. Several from different angles help more than one perfect one.
- A full length photo for build and posture, even an old one.
- The age and the time of life you want to remember them at. It does not have to match the most recent photos.
- Clothes, glasses, a hat, or anything they were never without.
- The wording for the base, copied exactly as you want it.
Working from the photos you have
Most families have plenty of photos of someone and very few that show the face clearly from the side. That is fine. We build the sculpt from everything you send together, using each photo for what it shows best, and tell you honestly if anything needs another look through the albums.
You choose the moment: newly married, as a grandparent, or as they were last year. It can be true to life, or gently stylised if a realistic face would be too much. You see renders before anything is printed and can ask for changes before it goes near a printer.
It is then printed in resin, painted by hand, and fixed to a base engraved with their name.
Size, material and finish
- Size
- Standard, around 15cm, suits a shelf or a mantelpiece. Large, around 20cm, gives the face more room.
- Colour
- Hand painted, full colour, or a single colour for a quieter, sculptural look.
- Material
- Resin, for the finest detail in the face.
- Base
- Engraved with their name, their dates and a line of your own, or plain.
- Finish
- Matte usually looks most natural.
How long it takes
The quote comes back with a lead time before you commit. If there is an unveiling or an anniversary you are working towards, put the date in the form and we will tell you honestly whether it can be met. There is no pressure to decide anything quickly.
Questions
Can you include their pet or a favourite object?
Yes. A dog at their feet, their chair, a fishing rod or a guitar. Send photos of each.
Can it be ready for an unveiling?
Give us the date in the form and we will tell you honestly whether it can be met before you commit to anything.
What if I am not sure the photos are good enough?
Send them anyway. We look through them before quoting and tell you plainly what we can do with them.
