Know before you buy
No, this piece is designed exclusively for indoor use. While it is crafted from durable cast stone, the finish and mounting hardware are intended for interior environments.
The plaque weighs 19 pounds. Due to its weight and cast stone construction, it requires heavy-duty wall anchors and hardware rated for at least 20 pounds to ensure a secure installation.
Because each plaque is handcrafted, you can expect slight variations in the texture and finish. These nuances are intentional and reflect the artisanal nature of the cast stone process.
The plaque does not include mounting hardware. We recommend consulting with a local hardware professional to select the appropriate anchors and screws based on your specific wall type, such as drywall, brick, or plaster.
To maintain the appearance of the plaque, simply dust it periodically with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scrubbers, which could damage the textured finish.
