Foundry Series™ Patent & Inventor Plaques

Pure Craftsmanship with Patent History Engraved in Wood

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 Foundry Series™ is a return to fundamentals—where innovation is permanently etched directly into solid wood. In this series, the issued patent document is laser engraved straight into the surface of the plaque, allowing the material itself to become the canvas. There are no metal plates or overlays—only precision engraving, natural grain, and enduring craftsmanship.

This approach creates a strikingly authentic presentation that feels both elemental and refined. The engraved patent text and drawings gain character from the wood’s natural variation, producing a one-of-a-kind heirloom that emphasizes permanence, integrity, and substance. The Foundry Series™ is ideal for inventors who value simplicity, honesty of materials, and a timeless connection between invention and craft.

Each plaque is handcrafted in-house, ensuring crisp engraving, balanced layout, and consistent quality across every wood species.
