Sign description:
|
A sign created by the cutting away from a solid material such as stone or wood, where the lettering and / or design is cut down into the surface of the sign blank. Traditionally one-of-a-kind, handcarved pieces, many "carved" signs are now at least partially CNC routed or machine carved.
In addition to stone or wood, carved signs can be made from High Density Urethane, (HDU), a substitute that weathers better than natural wood. It's more difficult to do detailed painting on carved signs than it is on sandblasted signs since with carved signs the design areas are recessed, not raised.
