Laurel Heart Family Name Sign — Copper

Laurel Heart Family Name Sign — Copper — Hand-Hammered Personalized Family Wall Art

The laurel wreath and the heart are two of the oldest and most universally understood symbols in Western decorative art. The laurel says: this family has achieved something worth honoring. The heart says: this family is held together by love. Together, encircling the family name in copper relief, they make the most symbolically complete and most personally meaningful family name panel in the Natuross catalog.

A hand-hammered copper family name sign with a laurel wreath encircling a cluster of hearts in raised relief — your family name centered in the composition, the laurel branches framing it, the hearts completing the interior — built up from a flat copper sheet one hammer stroke at a time by our family using traditional chasing and repoussé techniques passed through generations. The name, the laurel, and the hearts are the composition: the text as the subject, the wreath as the frame, the hearts as the meaning. Available in all 15 finishes. Over 10,000 pieces made.

The laurel wreath — corona laurea in Latin — was the highest honor in ancient Greece and Rome: the crown of the Olympic victor, the wreath of the Roman triumph, the symbol of Apollo and of poetic achievement. The word “baccalaureate” comes from the laurel berry (bacca lauri) — the laurel wreath of the scholar. The heart as a symbol of love appears in European art from the 13th century, in the illuminated manuscripts of the courtly love tradition, in the playing cards of the 15th century, in the Sacred Heart of the Catholic devotional tradition. Together, the laurel and the heart make a composition that is simultaneously classical and intimate — the achievement of the family and the love that holds it together, in one frame, in copper.

What You Can Personalize

Every panel is personalized at no extra charge:

• Family name — centered in the composition, in the letterform and size that reads best at the scale of the panel
• Established date — the year of a marriage, a family founding, or a home purchase — below the family name or worked into the laurel border
• Short phrase — a family motto, a scripture reference, or a short phrase below the name
• Without text — the laurel and hearts as a pure decorative composition, no name
