Chuck - you always have the option of filling the other 3 sides with plates - charge more - and have them average the cost over the number of years they would have to fill those plates! By filling the other sides with plates you then bring the focus back to the front.
I would like to know where you got that urn - It looks nice in the photos - a lot larger than most pet urns I have seen.

Chuck,
If you need the Tiki's let me know I have a family member who carves them in Hawaii.
They may not be exactly what is pictured but are very close.
Here is a link to look at his work.

Joe,
I'll need to go back in the archives and look. It has been close to a year since I ordered those samples.
The plates on the trophy are on two sides left and right.

Chuck,
I only mentioned having the individual plates on the front of the award, in case it becomes one-of-many, in a display case.
In that event, viewing the side plates would become difficult.
Very unique concept...very well executed.
I like it a lot! :-)
