The namesake
The Hindu : Identiti could not be a more apt name for the shop that sells nameplates. And with every single detail about your home that is now branded and custom-made according to your preferences and tastes, Identiti is the first stop when you’re shiftinghome or office or moving into a new one.
So from door, wall, office, desk to gate nameplates which are designed for children, accessories, photo-frames, letter boxes, brass doorbells, plant holders in different textures and designs, you can choose from a variety of options for that first impression.
And how many times have we passed by a sprawling mansion with an elaborate, large-lettered nameplate wanting to tell the whole world who they are?
A pretty European alley-like signpost outside a shop or one that works like blocks in scrabble, these nameplates are ideal for those who want their first appearance to be telling.
The time that is needed to make or order these nameplates could be between eight to 60 days depending on the material used and for what purpose.
It takes eight to 10 days for door nameplates and up to 12 days for an apartment entrance or two months for a bungalow or villa.
The ones that you can pick up right away (which look informal) are the ceramic blocks that range from Rs. 425 for four letters (blocks) to Rs. 725 for ten letters (blocks).
The doorplates vary from Rs. 750 to Rs. 1,500 for the brush script variety that is computerised. For apartments, there are the hand calligraphy nameplates that come in five to six designs and colours according to the customer’s needs.
The brass scrolls are Rs. 1,250, accessories come at Rs. 450, photo frames at Rs. 225, letter boxes at Rs. 600, brass doorbells at Rs. 1,250 and money plant holders at Rs. 1,250.
