Custom Metal Plaques
Custom metal plaques are sophisticated, commemorative art pieces that are personalized for your unique occasions, achievements, and guests. We print personalized artwork directly onto metal, creating a stunning, modern and unique aesthetic. Our custom metal plaques range from industrial style to gorgeous artful designs, and are designed to be extra special gift for extra special occasions.
Once your design is finalized and your proof is approved, we use high top quality lifetime inks to print your artwork onto metal sheets before mounting a sturdy acrylic backing for durability and functionality. The backside is equipped with a functional sawtooth cutout and finished in fine, black velvet. Each plaque arrives ready to hang and appreciate. Truly a special gift and an upgrade from canvas and paper prints. Our metal plaques come in two finish options, opaque and translucent.
Opaque Metal has a thin white enamel coating which allows full color printing on top, with deep vivid colors and true whites and beiges. Because of the enamel coating, you will not see or feel the underlying raw metal beneath opaque metal art prints.
Translucent Metal prints DO show the actual metal beneath the art print. Light colors are somewhat transparent and whites and beiges highlight the actual tin color beneath the print. When the light shines on your translucent metal art plaque, it creates a gorgeous, luminescent effect. Translucent prints offer a much more metallic experience than opaque metal prints.
Additionally, we offer hand crafted, soldered metal framing services for a complete look. Metal framing is available in tin and may be optionally upgraded to real copper or brass. Framed metal plaques also include a soldered metal chain on the backside for hanging wall display.

About Us
We create one-of-a-kind metal recognition plaques, so everyday people can appreciate their everyday heroes, in a style that’s as unique as they are.
Lucky Tusk incorporated in 2015 and opened a brand new shop on Etsy. We immediately found our style and vision resonated with many. It did not take long to outgrow the limitations of our thriving Etsy shop, which neccessitated the move to our permanent home on luckytusk.com in 2017.
As pioneers in the metal art industry, Lucky Tusk specializes in personalized metal art plaques that commemorate the important people and events in your life. Our designer plaques are fully customizable and suitable for weddings, anniversaries, recognition awards, appreciation gifts and memorial plaques. Because every plaque is made to order, any design may be personalized to suit any occasion, no matter how unique it may be.
In 2020, we introduced our elegant and stunning metal wedding invitations. Since then, we have been designing and commemorating weddings, anniversaries, retirements, holiday announcements, fund raising events and corporate recognition events (to name just a few) around the globe.
These highly personal ceremonial plaques are both modern and traditional, and offer individualized joy, appreciation and comfort, for the years and generations to come.
And then we grew some more…
For the first few years, we were often commissioned to personalize our artwork onto canvas and other mediums. While we were happy to do the collaboration, the process of working with third party vendors took quality control out of our hands, as well as timely deliveries. This did not meet our expectations, nor did it match our aesthetic. We made the decision to incorporate canvas and paper production in-house, and we expanded the shop to accommodate the extra equipment and additional staff.
Today, we are happy to accommodate more of life’s meaningful milestones in the manner that best suits your decor, with the addition of canvas prints, framed art prints, and a variety of other useful mediums to spread personal touches throughout the home and office. From artsy canvas, to the permanence of metal, we design each gift to be an impactful work of art that may be cherished for a lifetime.
"Life isn't a matter of milestones, but of moments."
Love the design but need it for a different occasion? Every work of art is made to order just for you. Simply include your own text changes in the personalizations box or request that a new sentiment be selected for you. (You will receive a proof for review.)
Looking for 10 year anniversary gift ideas on tin? Any art design can be personalized to accommodate the traditional 10th wedding anniversary milestone on tin for any anniversary, including your own!
