Most people who order the Acanthus Monogram personalized wall plaque want their house to feel like theirs. It carries a single large initial, framed by a cast acanthus leaf border, with your house number and street name below. The leaf pattern is an old architectural motif, so it suits brick colonials and newer homes alike.

What goes on the Acanthus Monogram personalized wall plaque

You pick one initial for the center. Then you add your house number, up to 5 characters, and your street name, up to 14 characters. The photo shows 2748 Newbury Street under the monogram, which gives you a feel for how a typical address fits. Because everything is cast into the metal, the lettering won’t peel or fade the way vinyl does.

Finish choices

Seven finishes are offered for the Acanthus Monogram personalized wall plaque: Antique Brass, Antique Copper, Black/Gold, Black/Silver, Bronze/Gold, Oil Rubbed Bronze and Pewter/Silver. The two-tone options keep the raised letters bright against a darker background, so the number reads well from the sidewalk. Antique Brass and Antique Copper are single-tone and look more like aged metal. If you can’t decide, Black/Gold is the safe choice, because it reads from the farthest away.

Material and warranty

The plaque is cast in the USA from recycled aluminum, which means it will not rust. An all-weather coating protects the finish, and it’s covered by a five-year warranty. If it gets dusty or spotted, a rinse and a soft cloth take care of it.

If you’d like the same look with a name instead of an initial, the other personalized plaques are worth a look.

Please check the spelling of every line before you order, because an Acanthus Monogram personalized wall plaque is cast to your text and can’t be changed or returned.
