A Timeless Design Honoring the Birth of the United States Patent System

Note:  All domestic hardwood plaques can be made in custom sizes up to 24" x 36". Please contact us for custom size orders, pricing and quantity discounts!

The Washington Series™ is a classic patent plaque design created to honor George Washington, who signed the first United States Patent on July 31, 1790. This series reflects the origins of American innovation, combining historic significance with refined, heirloom craftsmanship.

The layout draws inspiration from traditional patent document styling, presenting the issued patent content in a clean, balanced composition that feels both formal and enduring. Each patent is reproduced on a gold or silver aluminum plate, mounted over a high-gloss back plate that adds depth and visual contrast, and set within a handcrafted solid wood plaque.

Designed to feel authoritative without being ornate, the Washington Series is ideal for inventors who appreciate history, tradition, and the foundational role patents have played in American progress.
