Lots of stamping and texture on this lovely piece.  Mixed oxides: copper, bronze, and titanium. Absolutely click to see the details of this piece full screen!

There`s absolutely no reason why your switch plates and outlet covers have to be plain or ordinary. They should be just like any art work that you would hang on your walls; have color, design, match your decor, and just add beauty to that space. These textured ceramic "art plate" covers are made one at a time, so you know that the one you end up with, nobody else will have that same design. These are not the same old, same old, mass produced, generic pieces found in stores. And as always, all materials used come from within the United States. For purchasing information, please send an email to geometals@aol.com

"Leaves of Nature" This medley of vines, leaves, and branches is for those who appreciate and want to be surrounded by the beauty of nature.
"Meteors" done with copper and bronze oxides. This one would "artify" any wall space.


"Meteors" with bright indigo, turquoise, and azure.
Choose whatever configuration that you will need. Next select the color(s) and texture that you want. Your switch plate will be hand made just for you.

One of a kind
Wow! The image above this one (an over size outlet cover: 5" long by 3.5" wide) has the same texture but is done in different tones. (Made for my own house)







 
Fern pattern with iridescent blues and greens



Fern/leaf pattern in black with silver oxide. Changing the colors, changes the look too.  Another happy outlet cover.

Collage of rich textures with silver oxide and a hint of blue. What a way to use this space to "artify" it.






Hand gilded copper and bronze oxides over stamped clay.  Delicious!






"For the Queen" with deep tones of aqua, teal, turquoise, and azure. Available in other configurations and in the Decora/Lutron style.


"For the Queen" hand gilded with copper and bronze oxides.  This photo doesn`t capture the depth and color shifts.  This one is absolutely stunning!

So long, boring switch plate covers! Hello, delectable art plate covers!
These are my newest switch plate covers. Each one is a collage and combines rich textures and warm tones designed to go in any room or office. Also, since so many people have requested the Decora/Lutron switch plate covers, they are now available. Feel free to ask for any different toggle configurations that you might need. Click on any of the images to view the textures in more detail. Need more info? geometals@aol.com



Far from the ordinary switch plate cover

"Shades of Pewter" Yep, it`s artified!




Mosaic collage in warm shades of brown

Cobalt Raku (added 8/5/12)
*** Just added. "Copper Dome" This stunning new cabinet pull is textured clay and has copper pigmented mica on the surface creating a contrast of color and texture. Scroll down to earlier posts to see all the other pulls.
Okay, wow! "Obsidian Dome" Very dramatic contrast of jet black with pewter mica on the surface of the texture. 

Your textured or marbleized plate can be made in any configuration.
