The scupltures shown are hand made to a very high specification, in stainless steel. Special note should be made that OUR designs have hulls and are faithfull reproductions of full size yachts & dinghies. These can be mounted as shown, and placed, with or without the steel base onto a wooden plinth. There are few products like this anywhere, and Astins are one of only a handful of companies worldwide that can offer this unique bespoke service. These trophies are particularly useful for sponsorship. Please ring our sales director Chris Hart on 0044 (0)1373 462090 at any time to discuss your requirements, alternatively email chart.astins@btopenworld.com IMPORTANT NOTE: Our designer is only able to hand make a small number of sculptures in any one week.

NEW WEB SITE UNDER CONSTRUCTION;we are still working on the new site which is taking longer than we thought! However we hope to have it up and running soon, We are not however going to have an on line payment system as there are so many variations with engraving etc that we have developed another system whereby we will contact you and discuss the final cost, and we believe this to be a much more hands-on approach.
SPECIAL OCCASIONS: All our designs can be personalised with name plates if required.
