House Sign with a mute swan pictorial
House Sign with mute swan pictorial. This house name and number plaque was ordered by a customer in New York State, USA and painted by house sign artist Sadie Bass. The customer asked for the font 'Golden Script' as an extra option with a swan in the foreground and Seagrass in the background. Our studio artists all think Sadie has made an excellent pictorial - Sadie usually gets commissioned to paint her beautiful flower designs onto our house plaques, so it was a nice change for her to be able to paint the swan.
