Why pets have their own pages
We make sculptures of animals on the same machines and to the same standard as everything else. They are kept on their own pages for a reason that has nothing to do with the work.

Not long after we started, a family asked whether we could make a sculpture of a dog. We could, and we did, and it turned out to be some of the most satisfying work in the workshop: an animal’s face is all character, and a good likeness of a pet lands with a family in a way that is hard to describe until you have seen it.
We now make pet memorials regularly. They are sculpted from photographs in exactly the same way, printed on the same machines, and finished by the same hands. Every pet piece is made to order, so ask us for a price.
The reason for the separate pages
A family arranging a funeral for a parent should not have to browse past a photograph of a spaniel to find the piece they came for. And an owner who has just lost a dog of fifteen years should not be met with a page about funeral directors. The two are equally serious to the people in them, and they deserve not to be shown each other.
So pets have their own pages. Same workshop, same standard, same care. Different door.
What we need from you
- Photographs of the face, from the front and the side. Animals rarely sit for a portrait, so a handful of snapshots is usually what we work from.
- A note of anything distinctive: the ear that folded, the patch over one eye, the way the tail curled. We sculpt what you tell us to look for.
- Patience for the preview. You see up to three design previews before printing, and up to 7 days from approval.
