Inscriptions and Lettering

We specialise in traditional hand carved lettering for churches, estates, and heritage settings. Our work is grounded in historic practice, proportion, and permanence. With comprehensive knowledge of historic letterforms, we offer custom designs for incised inscriptions, as well as painted or gilded brush lettering.

Hand carved lettering offers definition and character that machine made alternatives cannot replicate. Each commission is approached as a considered piece of craft rather than signage. We can prepare plaques and panels in any variety of timber, or carve existing boards on site or in the workshop.

We offer:

• Traditional hand carved inscriptions in timber

• Work carried out on site or in the workshop

• Plaques, panels, memorials, honour boards, and architectural features

• Lettering designed to suit historic and contemporary settings

• Custom design layouts and letterforms

• Surface brush lettering and gilding
