At Bronze Tide, we specialise in high-quality cast bronze plaques, providing expert design and craftsmanship for customers across New Zealand.
Whether you’re looking for bronze memorial plaques, heritage plaques, dedication plaques, custom signage, or decoration – we deliver durable, beautifully crafted plaques to suit any purpose. We don’t charge per line of text; if it fits on the plaque (providing it will cast well), we’ll only charge for the cost of the plaque based on the size. Custom artwork is our specialty and we can even create custom motifs at no extra charge.
OUR PROCESS
We’ve streamlined the process to make ordering your bronze plaque simple and hassle-free:
Start with a call or email – Reach out to us to begin. We’ll guide you through every step.
Fast quote & mock-up – We’ll ask a few key questions, then provide a quick quote and design preview.
Share your ideas – Send photos, sketches, or reference images to help us bring your vision to life.
Approve the design – Once you’re happy with the design, we’ll send you an invoice.
Expert casting – Upon payment, your bronze plaque is put into production at our quality foundry.
Direct delivery – After approximately 5 weeks, your plaque is couriered directly to you or your preferred installer.
Installation support – If your plaque is for a cemetery, we can often help arrange or advise on installation.
In this example, the customer provided a description which included the size, intention to have a second person added later, a celtic style frame, a rose and praying hands.
After 2 mock-ups, we went with the simple, elegant option for the final design of the bronze memorial plaque. This version shows how the plaque will look when the single name plate is finally replaced.
The final plaque delivered, unboxed and ready for installation at the customer’s prearranged cemetery plot.
The plaque was installed in an outdoors plot. The detachable plate blends well with the plaque and will eventually be replaced with a plate to show 2 names with corresponding dates.
At Bronze Tide we only use the highest quality bronze. All our plaques are thoroughly checked for defects after casting and on the rare occasion that a plaque isn’t up to standard it will be recast with minimal disruption to the estimated turnaround time.
