Driftwood Effect 
Wooden House Signs

Driftwood Effect House Signs and Name Plates

These are very unusual and really do show the beauty of the grain. The letters are protected by special rubber stencil and the background is sand blasted away leaving the driftwood effect. We normally use Iroko or Red Cedar but can use oak or sapele (similar to mahogany)   Oak has the most pronounced driftwood grain effect but the least depth to the letters. We usually finish with Devon Oil or Osmo Oil. The red cedar signs are made using 40mm thick timber whereas the others are 25mm.


Lettering
The letters are slightly raised above the driftwood effect background. Colours - Black, Brown, Ivory and Green. We can use most common fonts - for a selection CLICK HERE   For this type of sign it is best to used a bold font without any thin lines or tails. Letter size depends on the number characters but the minimum size is 30mm. This is size 9 on our sign sizing and layout tool.

We can include simple pictures on the signs.

The cost is £12.50 per standard image or £34.50 if you provide your own jpg or other bitmap image. If you do want an image the maximum number of letters is reduced by three.
