After being specifically approached by North Wales Tourism (NWT), one of the leading tourism groups in the country, this project was designed to support Wales in recognising their finest tourism businesses and attractions. Created for NWT’s annual awards ceremony in Llandudno, the quality of these trophies had to be exceptional which is why each one was expertly handcrafted from cast brass and finished with a chrome plating. Each dragon was then installed upon a shaped and polished granite base, making them very heavy and robust. 

The project was entirely funded and shouldered by ourselves. The trophies have been extremely well received so, subsequently, we have provided the same support to the tourism industry of Wales for several consecutive years.
