Queen Elizabeth II Memorial Plaque
A 290 x 545 x 6 mm solid bronze memorial plaque produced for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
A memorial piece for an historic occasion
Among the commemorative work produced by Furnells is this solid bronze memorial plaque for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, created for the period in which she lay in state at Westminster Abbey.
Manufactured from 6 mm solid bronze and measuring 545 × 290 mm, the plaque is a substantial formal piece whose material and proportions reflect the importance of its purpose.
Work of this nature calls for restraint and clarity. A memorial plaque has to communicate permanence and dignity without unnecessary decoration, allowing the material, lettering and overall presentation to carry the significance of the piece.
The result is a traditional solid-bronze commemorative plaque produced for one of the most significant national occasions of recent history.
Bespoke memorial and commemorative plaques
Furnells produces bespoke memorial plaques, commemorative plaques, engraved nameplates and one-off presentation pieces from its London workshop. Projects can be produced for institutions, organisations, architects, businesses and private clients where an off-the-shelf plaque simply is not appropriate.
The workshop works across materials including bronze, brass, aluminium, stainless steel, slate and timber, allowing the material and finish to be selected around the setting, purpose and required appearance of the finished piece.
