Can I have any of the Elbin Art products personalized ?

The majority of the time the answer is yes however there are cases where I cannot - send me an email at elbin@elbinart.com detailing what you are looking for.

Where are you located and how large is Elbin Art?

Elbin Art is located in Powhatan, VA. There is no physical store. This is a small single person business by Elbin, Frank E Stone, who has a passion for woodworking art. Products are available through my store on this website and certain events where Elbin Art will have a booth (see events page).

I am not affiliated with a distillery or winery however would like a specific distillery/winery logo engraved or made from a Elbin Art product, can I get that done?

Maybe. I do not make a product with a distillery or winery's logo on it without getting their permission first. If you would like a specific distillery or winery's logo on a product, let me know which one and I will contact them for permission.

I am an owner of a distillery, restaurant or winery. Can Elbin Art customize some of the products with my logo / name engraved on it?

Yes - send me an email at elbin@elbinart.com detailing what you are looking for.

I am an owner of a distillery, restaurant or winery. On the Elbin Art Products that have an Elbin Art coin installed, can it be replaced with our own coin?

If you have your own company logo coin, depending on the size, yes it can. If you don't have your own company logo coin but are interested in having one made, contact Elbin@ElbinArt and we can discuss the options for this. We work with a particular manufacturer on the Elbin Art coin and the same manufacturer could make your own coin.

What is the lead time of your products?

It is dependent on how many orders are in house, quantity of the order, product ordered and amount of unfinished wood on hand to make the product. Please keep in mind that most of my products are made to order. Great care goes making each product. Each product is shaped sanded multiple times, some are stained, and coated to bring out the beauty of the wood and provide for longer life of the product. There is also a cure time for the stain and final coats. Typical lead time is 3-5 weeks depending on the product. Contact Elbin@elbinart.com if you have a specific product in mind and have a specific date you need the product to see if the product can be accommodated.

Is the hardware on Elbin Art products manufactured by Elbin Art?

No. Hardware such as coins, cork openers, dispensers, bottle openers, bells, cleats, hooks, etc. are not made by Elbin Art. Elbin Art shapes/sands/finishes the raw board pieces and/or the whiskey/wine barrel staves, and then adds the hardware (manufactured by others) to complete a finished product.

Please note that Elbin Art does not make any glasses or any of the hardware on the wood products (openers, clocks, candles, metal handles, screws, bolts, hooks, etc.). Elbin Art makes many wood products that hold/display coins, poker chips, etc. and while Elbin Art also sells some coins (not made by Elbin Art) those coins are sold/shipped separately.

While Elbin Art does offer custom laser engraving on certain Elbin Art wood products, Elbin Art will not do any laser engraving of company logos unless the customer has provided written permission from the particular company. Elbin Art does not do any laser engraving of any College logos, Pro sports team logos or military logos as they are copyright protected and Elbin Art currently does not have a license from those organizations to use their logos for engraving. Elbin Art does not do engraving on glasses, etc.

Some standard Elbin Art wood products may have engraving/inlay where the graphics used for the engraving or inlay may not have been developed by Elbin Art. In those particular cases, Elbin Art paid for the use of those graphic designs from graphic designer and based on the graphic design seller's guidelines (which may vary on a case by case basis). While Elbin Art may have purchased the clip art for use on a Commercial product, Elbin Art does not own the copyright for the clipart - the graphic designer owns the copyright. DO NOT copy any of the graphics for personal or commercial use as you must pay for the use of the artwork from the graphic art seller. Some graphic art seller guidelines may or may not require recognition of their work however Elbin Art will always list who the graphics was purchased from for the piece regardless if recognition is required or not for a few reasons - Elbin Art is not taking credit for graphics that was not made by me, give credit to the graphics designer that did the work and reinforce that Elbin Art takes copyright/trademark laws seriously.

Please note that Elbin Art DOES NOT produce or sell any type of alcohol. Any bottles shown with products are for display purposes ONLY. Elbin Art only sells and ships within the US. Must be over 21 to order products made with reclaimed wine/whiskey barrel staves and/or products that carry wine/whiskey bottles/glasses.

PLEASE DRINK RESPONSIBLY. DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE. Keep all alcohol out of reach of those under 21.
