Description

Welcome visitors with a unique, laser-cut steel sign featuring a portrait of the pup that'll warm your heart. Based on ‘Donny’, one of the winners of our Kelpie Photo Competition, and crafted with attention to detail, this art piece captures the elegance and personality of the Kelpie breed. From rustic patinas to painted or powdercoated finishes, give it as a paw-some gift or keep it all to yourself.

We have 200 dog breed designs to choose from - if you're looking for a breed other than our Kelpie, see our full range of Dog Portrait Signs for even more options (they're sorted alphabetically for convenience.)

All of our signs are:

    • Locally made in the Adelaide Hills
    • Cut from 1.6mm weathering steel
    • Weathering steel requires no additional preservation
    • Convenient mounting holes to make installation a breeze
    • Optional custom text to personalise your sign even more!

DIMENSIONS:
We offer our signs in 2 standard sizes: 40 wide x 30cm high & 50 wide x 37cm high.
*This size is for the rectangle frame - each design will be slightly higher as the top of the dog's head pokes through, this amount does vary by design.
Alternate sizes are welcome by request.

As we cut our items to order they may not be weathered yet when they reach you. We will include a few tips on how to weather your product & get the beautiful rustic patina as quickly as possible.

Weathering Tips

It's our aim to get your sign or ornament to you as quickly as possible, so unfortunately it isn't possible for us to pre-weather them.

This means your item will be in its raw form - the traditional grey steel colour. It doesn't take long to develop the beautiful rusty patina on your item, most will look pretty good within just a couple of weeks.

However, to be fully sealed and for your product to stop leaking any rust, does require 3-6 months. We have experimented with a few different options, and these are our top tips to speed up the weathering process.

Shipping

Within Australia we offer flat rate delivery of $13.5 per order, or $18.5 for express postage.
You are also able to pickup from us at Mt Barker SA – this is free!

Postage on Custom Signs

Postage costs on custom signs & items will be quoted along with your sign and generally starts from $15. Australia Post allow us to send items up to 105cm. If your item is larger than this we will use a courier & charges will apply at cost.

When will I receive my order?

Our processing times do vary, however aim to create & post all orders within 3-5 business days, however sometimes there are factors outside of our control that may effect this. Painted items require a minimum 1-2 week processing time to allow for multiple coats & drying time. Powdercoated items are outsourced to a small local business, and as this is a multistep process that requires curing time between each step please allow 2-3 weeks for processing.

It looks so much like one of our dogs we love it

We were having issues of people entering our house yard when we have some big dogs in there. We got this sign so they had a warning so they did not get a big surprise when our pups came around the corner.

Welcome sign

I know my sheltie will run to do the door to say ‘welcome’ but this sign will also say welcome from another sheltie. Love my new sign. Thank you so much :)

This was a gift for my dad. I was impressed with the great quality and staffy design. Amy was helpful in checking an order note I had incorrectly left. Arrived fast too. Thanks 😃

What are the products made from?

While weathering steel is usually referred to by its trademark name COR-TEN (or Corten), we use an Australian made equivalent from Bluescope called REDCOR. It is known for its superior corrosion resistance and thickness. This is because the surface of the steel forms a protective oxide layer when  exposed to the weather. In other words, the steel is allowed to rust in order to protect itself. This protective surface layer continues to regenerate over years of exposure.

And it looks AMAZING!
