Sentimentum | Custom Portrait & Sculptural Keepsake

Sentimentum is a unique range of sentimental keepsakes that combine a handpainted watercolour portrait and hand-sculpted cold-porcelain clay accoutrements around the edges. It is an original piece developed by my self. 

I also developed my own special recipe for cold-porcelain clay.

The portrait will be based on the photo reference provided by you. High-res images are preferable to allow me to create a detailed piece.

Once the portrait is completed, I will apply a layer of cold way for that added protection against moisture. A highly detailed and intricate arrangement of flora will be hand-sculpted and assembled to complement the portrait.

Detailed with gold dust, the cold-porcelain clay sculpture will be varnished with a gloss clear coat.

For baubles, your keepsake will also include my bespoke eyelet hook wrapped in a cotton thread with unique individually-made findings in cold-porcelain clay to give you that rustic handmade appearance whilst being functional.

The back of the piece will have an area for a personalised message, please fill in the questions when you place your order.

For a framed option, your keepsake will be shadow-mounted securely on a black background. Frame size is approximately 13x18x3 cm

If you're after something that will be cherished for a lifetime, to commemorate a special occasion, or starting a family tradition.

My 'Sentimentum' keepsake range is the perfect option for all types of important subjects in your life, such as family members, friends, pets, homes, and vehicles, just to name a few, the options are endless. 

Portrait size: 7x7 cm
