Private Commissions
Private Commissions
Exchange your old brass or copper articles for a completely new handcrafted Pembarthy masterpiece, or request professional renovation services for cherished family heirlooms.
Our formula is simple and transparent:
Any old, tarnished, or broken brass, bronze, or copper items
in your possession can be evaluated for their authentic metallurgical weight and purity. This exact raw value is then converted into a direct credit toward the commission of a completely new, museum-grade Pembarthy masterpiece, or utilized toward the professional restoration of your existing ancestral heirlooms.
Provide initial images of your family's old brass or copper items to our concierge.
Our Master Artisans assess the metallurgical purity and weight of the submitted material.
The assessed value is calculated and provided as a transparent credit toward your new artwork.
Choose from our curated collections or discuss a completely bespoke new commission.
A completely new masterpiece is forged from scratch using Kakatiya-era repoussé techniques.
