3 Custom Shadowboxes for Terra Cotta Medallions
At the end of the year 2016 I had a commission for 3 custom shadowboxes. These were for 3 terra cotta Jean Batiste Nini Medallions of Benjamin Franklin. These were completed for the collector and delivered. Here are two photos. The one of the case with the UV acrylic door in place still has the paper coating on the acrylic. This stays in place during shipping for protection. After it's removed, the acrylic glazing helps protect the collectible inside. The second photo is of all three cases, two are square, one is taller for an oval piece. Inside are angled mounts for the medallions and I used cardboard mock-ups to help with spacing and placement of the labels.
