Custom & Commisions
Customization opportunities allow you to create your own visions, enhance or change current designs, and/or personalize pieces. See below customization elements for additional details.
Wood Selection
For comission, reproduction, and customization, requests, there are a large number of wood selection opportunites. Please refer to the Wood Examples tab for photos and insights on the most common woods used in WoodArtia creations. There are dozens of additional woods to include exotics and domestics, so feel free to requests or discuss options at the time of design. Costs vary greatly for the various woods, so pricing of the final piece will be impacted accordingly. Some woods may not be appropriate for the desired design or use due to availabiltiy, durability, hardness, or machinability. Any issues or concerns in this regards, will be reviewed during the design phase.
Personalization
Personalization, to include signage, general text, names, etc., are available and encouraged. The cost associated with personalization will vary according to the type of work required. Inclusion of text as standard carve out is not generally a significant impact, as exampled in the above photo. However, for 3D, multi-color (mulitple woods) usage, or complex integrations, design and costs would increase. Personalization opportunities and costs will be reviewed during the design process.
Commission
Comission work is welcome. Please communicate comission inquiries to inquiries@woodartia.com, or use the Contact Tab on this site. Your request will be reviewed and responded to within generally two weeks or sooner. If determined to be a viable effort, you will receive a phone and e-mail contact to begin specific discussions on all design elements and likely costs. A non-refundable initial design fee of $100, is required for commission pieces. If the design proof is approved by the customer, the $100 fee will be applied to the final price.
Dimensions
The available dimensions of a piece are impacted by a number of variables, to include availability of selected woods with the requisite width and length, and machinability of the design elements. Design and dimension limitations will vary by project and will be reviewed as part of the commision and pricing process. For reproduction pieces or multiples of the same order/piece, where the size remains the same, there is no additional cost or design impact. However, if a change in size is wanted for a reproduction piece, the pricing and design process will be the same as for an original design...this is because any size change requires full creation redesign, and new 3D and tooling programming.
Pricing
Pricing is dependent on a number of variables, to include woods selected, complexity of design, size of the final piece, and whether the creation is single wood or multiple wood design. For these reasons, specific pricing for a custom or comissioned piece can only be determined at the end of the design process. That said, the below is a rough outline of likely pricing based on size and typical complexity:

Fulfillment
For pieces in the shop and/or already crafted, fullfillment is generally within a couple of days after purchase.
For comission and customization work:
These wood art pieces are highly customized and unique pieces of art. The creation process, to include 2D and 3D design, selection and ordering of select exotic woods, and finishing processes, can take considerable time. Average creation times are one to two months, but more complex pieces, could be longer. Time frames also vary due to pieces and work already in the production queue. Expected fulfillment times will be discussed at the time of ordering
