We Make Fancy House Signs

This fancy carved teak address sign has carved letters finished in 23 karat gold leaf and a hand-painted outline. Our customer provided the wooden fleur-de-lis, which we sanded and finished in patent 23 karat gold leaf.

We make every sign by hand in our Edgewater, MD shop, and each one is different. We choose the finest teak or mahogany for your project, with a handsome grain, and we only use the best cuts for every custom sign. So if you want a wooden sign that makes your home stand out, we can make it for you.

About the Sign Carving Process

First, we carved the letters and the inline. Next, we gilded the letters and lines in gold leaf. Then we painted the outline around the numbers with a fine lettering brush. Finally, we sealed the teak and gold with TotalBoat Lust marine varnish and sprayed several coats of Awlcraft 3000 Clear on top. With a little upkeep, this board will last a lifetime. In short, we make some of the best carved teak address signs around, and we’d love to make yours next!

We’ve made custom transom numbers for homes throughout the region, in Baltimore, Annapolis and Northern Virginia, and most of all in our nation’s capital, Washington, DC.
